Scientific paper

The paper explains the observed behavior of the longitude residuals of
Uranus by a massive collision on the planet. The results of many
simulations suggest that the impactor needed to explain the observations
of Uranus is coherent with the recently invoked existence of a
population of 1000-km bodies in the outer solar system.
