A New Planet ?!?!


At the California Institute of Technology, researchers believe they have discovered a planet  which is 20 times farther to the sun than Neptune.  Because the planet is so far away, it has been estimated that it takes about 10,000 to 20,000 years to complete a full orbit around the sun. The planet has not been seen yet but with the help of others, the researchers have been able to accumulate data to back up their hypothesis. If this planet is real, many have said that it will serve as a replacement for Pluto, the dwarf planet demoted in 2006. The news is very exciting and raises a lot of question. However, only time will be able to answer them so stay updated.
