Wtf

hmm.... this planet's camouflage system is really good for sure, but seriously how didn't we saw it earlier? (camouflage system obviously) there can't be anither explanation
Outside all the previous this is actually really interesting, how big is it? I mean, because maybe it was taken as a "mini planet" and maybe for some reason the decided to change it. Really want to see how this ends

they found pluto?

Doesn't something usually happen to our planet every 10,000-20,000 years? Kinda strange that they estimate that, that's how long it takes for that planet to orbit the sun. That's just my thoughts though. lol

>>4 you are kidding right have to been living under a rock for the past 10 years. . .

"In August 2006 the International Astronomical Union (IAU) downgraded the status of Pluto to that of "dwarf planet." This means that from now on only the rocky worlds of the inner Solar System and the gas giants of the outer system will be designated as planets. The “inner Solar System” is the region of space that is smaller than the radius of Jupiter’s orbit around the sun. It contains the asteroid belt as well as the terrestrial planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The “gas giants” of course are Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus. So now we have eight planets instead of the nine we used to have."

what >>1 is talking about is a possible large planet body beyond Pluto which has been in the news the last week,

>>2 Because Scientists believe it has such and odd orbit and takes so long to move round the solar system it's kind of one of them hard to see objects to spot since it also soo far out in the solar system.

Speaking of Pluto..
Didn't that piss off the Romans? Pluto being one of their major Gods and all.

>>9
Considering Pluto wasn't discovered until 1930 and the name was proposed by an 11-year-old British girl, probably not.

The proposed new name of the ninth planet is
Persephone

•It pays homage to Pluto, previously known as the ninth planet, since Persephone was Pluto/Hades’s wife in Greek Mythology

•It helps make up for the gender inequality in the names of planets, since Venus is the only other planet named after a woman

•If it exists, it’d be the coldest planet in the Solar System, and in Greek Mythology, it was Persephone’s time spent in the underworld that caused winter

Other suggestions are....

“George” after King George III, in a nod to a British astronomer who discovered Uranus.

Terminus (Roman god of borders)

Vulcan (Roman god of fire)

Nimoy (as in Leonard, or Spock)

Tartarus (dungeon for sinners in Greek mythology)

Fortuna (Roman goddess of luck)


There's some other ones listed on the article:(http://time.com/4186763/new-planet-9-discovery-pluto-poll/)Such as "Olaf" from Frozen ( please no).

>>7 , T.Sister is a troll.Please ignore her.

Another name could be Nyx or Nox, as in, "goddess of night".Although , Nyx is already the name of a moon of Pluto.
Erebus- greek AND ROMAN primordial god of shadow is another option.

>>12 they could use those names Nyx or Nox,
Pluto's moons are (Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos, and Hydra)
