What sort of beings live on antichthon?

Question

there is a such place.its on the other side of the sun and looks like earth.

Answer 1

no such place.

if it existed its gravity would be a dead giveaway. space probes would have seen it.

Answer 2

No sorts of beings, because there is no such place.

You might want to try asking in the Books section for fiction, or the Mythology section for make-believe places.

Answer 3

It is presumed that IF it existed they would be like those who live on earth.

Antichthon is the idea of an alternate earth existing in the same orbit on the exact opposite side of the sun.  It was proposed to explain how the solar system could be balanced and not tip over.  It is a very old idea, and hasn't been believed in for hundreds of years.

Interplanetary space probes have proved that it doesn't exist.

There once was a movie about the idea called Doppelgänger, from the German word for double.  It is also an idea that has been in comic books and role playing games.  It is meant to be taken as fiction, and in each case the inhabitants were very similar to those on earth.  A few exceptions, like magic using beings and humanoid animals were proposed, but nothing too radical.

According to Wikipedia:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antichthon

"The Counter-Earth is a hypothetical body of the Solar system first hypothesized by the presocratic philosopher Philolaus to support his non-geocentric cosmology, in which all objects in the universe revolve around a Central Fire. The Greek word "Antichthon" means "Counter-Earth."

By 500 BC most contemporary philosophers considered the Earth to be spherical - there was obvious evidence for this from the behaviour of objects near the horizon. This meant that all objects on the surface of the Earth had to be attracted to its centre in some way, otherwise they would fall off. It also required other objects, such as the stars and planets, to float above the earth in relation to its centre, otherwise they would presumably move rapidly away. This argument - reasonable in view of the data available at the time - resulted in a geocentric world view.

When the movements of celestial objects convinced Philolaus that the world must be not only turning on its own axis but revolving around a fixed point elsewhere in space, he was faced with the problem of explaining how a spherical world could move in this way without spilling everything on the surface into space. He came to the conclusion that the directions of up and down do not exist in space, except in that all things must fall towards the center of the universe, around which all things (including the Earth, Sun, and all the planets) must revolve. Our earth must be a practically flat world and the underside of our Earth must face this fiery, central point at all times, otherwise we would fall off."

Answer 4

There is no antichthon.

Contrary to popular belief, solar orbits are not completely symmetrical.  The other planets do affect our orbit and it does not follow a closed ellipse (each year, we follow a slightly different line).  Since the effect of the other planets is not balanced (e.g., either Jupiter is on one side OR it is on the other, it can't be on both sides at once), we would have noticed any antichthon.

If there were, I suspect the conditions would be like Earth.

If this antichthon does not have an antiselene (counter-Moon), the variety of life could be a lot less (the intertidal area would be much smaller) and their biological clocks would be different (the days would be slightly shorter, not having the Moon to slow down the rotation)

Answer 5

There is not and cannot be a planet that is always on the far side of the Sun. Even if a planet were placed there, it would not stay there, because that position is an unstable equilibrium called L3 (or third Lagrange point). That means that any little gravitational disturbance, like the pull of Jupiter or whatever, would cause the planet to drift to one of the stable Lagrange points, L4 or L5, 60 degrees ahead of or behind the Earth in its orbit, where it would remain forever.

Answer 6

It's a myth. No such place exists.
