  Ceti Alpha VI - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As a result of this explosion the balance of life on Ceti Alpha V was altered significantly.
This explosion's shockwave caused Ceti Alpha V to move further away from the sun until it occupied Ceti Alpha VI's former orbit, thus explaining the Reliant crew's mistaking it for Ceti Alpha VI.
It is also worth noting that most of the movie's explanation suggests that the Ceti Alpha V travelled outward (instead of sunward) as a result of the explosion of a planet that was behind it and apparently linearly with it; an unlikely scenario given the known non-linear arrangement of bodies in our solar system.

In the science fiction universe of Star Trek, Ceti Alpha V is the fifth planet in the Ceti Alpha star system, consisting of a Class M, or Earth-like environment.
It was eventually settled in the year 2268 by the legendary ruler Khan Noonien Singh and his small group of fellow genetically-engineered supermen who were in their search for a new existence away from Earth, as they flee punishment and defeat following their loss of the Eugenics Wars of the 1990s.
To make things worse for Khan's people, the nearby planet of Ceti Alpha VI exploded six months after their arrival, and the shock shifted Ceti Alpha V's orbit, and made the planet nearly uninhabitable.

Khan reveals that this planet is in fact Ceti Alpha V - shortly after Kirk left Ceti Alpha VI exploded, laying waste to the planet.
The excuse given for this is that when Ceti Alpha VI exploded, Ceti Alpha V was shifted into a new orbit.
But even assuming that the orbits and explosion were such that this happened, it beggars belief that the two planets are exactly the same size, have exactly the same mass, exactly the same surface geography, etc. Not to mention that the destruction of Ceti Alpha VI should have left a new asteroid belt...

We all understand how Kirk never told Starfleet about the Botany Bay and it's crew: how he left them on Ceti Alpha V. That also means Checkov would not have known about it either, or you could speculate that Kirk told him sometime during their voyages, but never told Starfleet, period.
If he was in Security, he would have overseen their departure to Ceti Alpha V. This is where the YATI comes in, why?
Because if Checkov did not know about it, then the mistake (them thinking that were on Ceti Alpha V) would have been acceptable.
