Ed Conrad, you are a dipstick.  A planet's speed is determined by its mass
and its distance from the parent star.  If it travels any slower, gravity
will win and it will eventually plunge into the star.  If it travels too
fast, centrifugal force will propel it beyond its orbit, eventually flinging
it into space.  I don't know where your or Billy Meier's aliens come from
with their high-speed planets BS, but the laws that govern planetary
movement are pretty much established and scientifically sound.

This was already known since 400 years.

Too bad the Sacred Fission/Fusion Cow of NASA physics neglected to tell
everyone about the sun's ferrite core.

Of course, that would have given everyone on Earth free energy, hua.
