I wonder what gave Don this idea to begin with?
This idea seems to be old, called "Counter-Earth".
From Wikipedia:
"The Counter-Earth is a hypothetical body of the Solar system hypothesized by the pre-Socratic Greek philosopher Philolaus (c. 470 – c. 385 BC) to support his non-geocentric cosmology, in which all objects in the universe revolve around an unseen "Central Fire" (distinct from the Sun which also revolves around it). The Greek word Antichthon (Greek: Ἀντίχθων) means "Counter-Earth."
In modern times a hypothetical planet always on the other side of the Sun from the Earth has been called a "Counter-Earth",[1] and has been a recurring theme in fiction, science fiction[2] and UFO claims."
If Ra did give correct information and there is a so called "Counter-Earth", locked in our orbit, always on the other side of the sun, then it seems like this is another planet.

I haven't seen Ra stating anything like that, on contrary, they seem to say that our sun is the center. In regards to their usage of the word "galaxy", Don and Ra did clear up this misunderstanding between them in later sessions:
"16.34 Questioner: Would you define the word galaxy as you just used it?
Ra: We use that term in this sense as you would use star systems.
Category: Definitions: Galaxy
16.35 Questioner: I’m a little bit confused as to how many total planets then, roughly, does the Confederation that you are in serve?
Ra: I am Ra. I see the confusion. We have difficulty with your language.
The galaxy term must be split. We call galaxy that vibrational complex that is local. Thus, your sun is what we would call the center of a galaxy. We see you have another meaning for this term.
