Going way back, _When Worlds Collide_ showed a rogue planet's entry to our solar system. Several of the Lensman novels portrayed the Galactic Patrol using planets as weapons. I don't think that Our Historian ever said where they came from. James Blish had the planet He gallivanting around in _Earthman, Come Home_. I believe that Amalfi also grabbed some other planet to smash the Vegan orbital fortress in the same novel. -- Michael F. Stemper The name of the story is "A Sound of Thunder". It was written by Ray Bradbury. You're welcome.
