Cornell University associate Lorenzo Lorio, has researched and written a paper confirming observations made by many -- that the moon's orbit has become erratic. I've been following this story for several months, having noticed genuine irregularities...wondering if and when we'd hear from the scientists. Well, here's one brave soul from Cornell.
"On the anomalous secular increase of the eccentricity of the orbit of the Moon. The present-day models of the dissipative phenomena occurring in the interiors of both the Earth and the Moon are not able to explain it. A recent analysis ( Prior1st Feb 2011 (Netlethe) ) of a Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR) data record spanning 38.7 yrs, revealed an anomalous increase of the eccentricity of the lunar orbit.
A potentially viable Newtonian candidate would be a trans-Plutonian massive object (Planet X/Nemesis/Tyche) since it, actually, would affect e with a non-vanishing long-term variation. "
