No offense, but I cannot for the life of me figure out your point.
Are you saying there is a rogue planet that is Heading Right Toward Earth!!!!!!!
Or are you debunking it?

I too cannot understand what you are trying to say. It seems that this whole photo issue was unrelated to anything at all which was my thinking. You also seem to think that there is a lot of interstellar material passing by us. Despite Hollywood and its movies like Star Wars there is no evidence for interstellar asteroid fields.
The fact is that whole sky surveys can detect planet sized objects very far away from us. Nothing is being picked up to a distance of 8x the distance to Pluto for anything Mars sized and up.
yet nothing will be Confirmed to the Public if Astronomers Did detect Something that would Come right at Us
NASA & University's Probably Has FAILED more then we Know of Objects Passing in Our Solar System
What is the Policy for Paid Professional Astronomers of[sic] Reporting Something Unusual ![sic] ?
I say NASA and Universitys[sic] has[sic] bee[sic] seeing Planets and Brown Dwarfs Rouge Planets Comets
since the 50s !! and Now they are just Confirming they are !! 50+ years Later..
Especially when NASA Saying that there is a 100% Change Of Life on those Goldie Locks Zone Planets
There is no evidence that Sedna has an origin from outside the solar system. It would be extremely unlikely that anything in our solar system is from another galaxy.
Our sun is the large yellow spot... you can see where the stream intersects the Milky way and where we are in all this

Free-Floating Planets May be More Common Than Stars

PASADENA, Calif. -- Astronomers, including a NASA-funded team member, have discovered a new class of Jupiter-sized planets floating alone in the dark of space, away from the light of a star. The team believes these lone worlds were probably ejected from developing planetary systems.
The discovery is based on a joint Japan-New Zealand survey that scanned the center of the Milky Way galaxy during 2006 and 2007, revealing evidence for up to 10 free-floating planets roughly the mass of Jupiter. The isolated orbs, also known as orphan planets, are difficult to spot, and had gone undetected until now. The newfound planets are located at an average approximate distance of 10,000 to 20,000 light-years from Earth.
"Although free-floating planets have been predicted, they finally have been detected, holding major implications for planetary formation and evolution models," said Mario Perez, exoplanet program scientist at NASA Headquarters in Washington.

Explain to me how it got there will ya ?
Sedna Could of[sic] been from the Sagittarius Dwarf Elliptical Galaxy
. In this method, a planet-sized body is identified indirectly as it just happens to pass in front of a more distant star, causing the star to brighten.

Sedna was formed with the solar system. The question is not where it came from. The question is how it was moved into the orbit it currently has.
@ are you so sure ? How Sedna was formed from our solar system ? can you show me a link to this fact
Right : how did it come in to it Currently has ?
Sedna Could of[sic] been from the Sagittarius Dwarf Elliptical Galaxy
No. That galaxy is 70,000 light years away from Earth.
This galaxy is also being pulled apart by the Milky Way's gravity - as it orbits the Milky Way, it is leaving a long filament of stars, gas, and dust in its wake. This 200,000 light year-long filament is known as the Monoceros Ring, and actually wraps three times around our galaxy! The Canis Major Dwarf galaxy was discovered in the course of the investigation of this Ring, which was first discovered in 2002.

Ibata (Strasbourg Observatory, ULP) et al., 2MASS, NASA
The closest known galaxy to us is the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, at 236,000,000,000,000,000 km (25,000 light years) from the Sun. The Sagittarius Dwarf Elliptical Galaxy is the next closest , at 662,000,000,000,000,000 km (70,000 light years) from the Sun.
Yes & No its 70,000 LYs
Especially when they have recently discovered that, there stars that may be Older then they once thought that is Along fresh newly formed stars a Prime Evidence of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy that has Punched a Hole Twice
70,000 LY's from the telescope but is still intermingled with our our Own !!
