Hereof, what happens in melancholia?
Melancholia, a rogue gas giant planet that entered the Solar System from behind the Sun, becomes visible in the sky as it approaches ever closer to Earth. John is excited about the planet and looks forward to the "fly-by" predicted by scientists.
Furthermore, can melancholia happen?
With Melancholia supposedly a planet equal to or larger than Earth, there is no way it could ever be in a position to chase down the Earth after passing around it that manner AFTER coming around the sun, as it does in position two.
In the 2011 movie Melancholia, a planet, also called Melancholia, enters the solar system and hits the Earth. In the movie, the planet passes close to the Earth, starts receding, doubles back and hits the Earth, all in a few days.
