The planets did not align per say; however they did come into a state of Syzygy ( look on wikipedia; and commit to memory, because its great for Scrabble). On that date (3/10/1982), all 9 planets came with in 91 degrees (this is debated, I've heard as much as 95 degrees) of alignment, on the same side of the sun. This is a very rare event, and will only happen once in the length of human kind. We would have to be pretty lucky to last another million or so years. Looking at it from a purely statistical standpoint, all 9 planets will never perfectly align in the same plane. March 10th 1982 is the closest we will ever get.

Currently, there are only eight planets in our solar system, so there is no tenth planet. The tenth planet ever to be discovered (not counting Pluto as a planet) is a planet that orbits the star PSR B1257+12. It is about a thousand light years away from the sun.
What is the tenth planet away from the sun?
There are only 8 major planets in the solar system, since Pluto (the old ninth planet) was re classified as a dwarf planet. If we did count the 5 additional dwarf planets, then Pluto would be the tenth one out, since there is a dwarf planet called Ceres between Mars and Jupiter.
What is the name of tenth planet in solar system?
There isn't a tenth planet in the Solar System.There are 8 planets in the Solar System:MercuryVenusEarthMarsJupiterSaturnUranusNeptuneIn addition to the 8 planets, there are 5 dwarf planets:CeresPlutoHaumeaMakemakeErisPluto and Ceres were once counted among the planets. Ceres became an asteroid, and was later reclassified as a dwarf planet; Pluto was a planet and was then reclassified as a dwarf planet.Though the dwarf planets meet 2 of the 3 requirements to be a planet, they do not qualify according to the IAU definition and hence, they are not counted among the planets.An object that is inaccurately called the 10th planet is 90377 Sedna. Sedna is a trans-Neptunian object and a likely dwarf planet discovered by Michael Brown (Caltech), Chad Trujillo (Gemini Observatory) and David Rabinowitz (Yale University) on November 14, 2003. It is currently 88 AU from the Sun, about three times as distant as Neptune.old Mayan story and no body would believe it. As people said the end of the world will be in 2000, and nothing happend, again the stupid Mayan said the end of the world will be in 2012........ The question here is how did they know?....... do you have an answer?....no you don't, because now with everything we have and we don't know if that is true or not
What is the name of tenth draft planet?
A number of names for the "tenth planet" were discussed; two popular ones were Xena, from the TV program, and Persephone, in Greek mythology the consort of Pluto. However, in 2006, the International Astronomical Union recategorized Pluto as a "dwarf planet", and the body tentatively named "Xena" was officially named Eris as another "dwarf planet". (There are three other named "dwarf planets" to go with Pluto and Eris.)
