If they was really a planet out there we could be able to watch it some nights. The trueness of this is probly not real.

Considering the huge distance of this hypothetical planet from the sun, unless it's got a very reflective surface, chances are it is next to impossible to see.

I figured there'd be another psych reference or two in here.

I think it was the last season when they go into Gus' closet, and he has a poster of Pluto on the wall. I lost it.

You do realize that was an article from years ago, and referred to a meeting that happened six months ago without a peep?


And while others were joking....I think you are being serious:

Why would demoting a planet's status get grant money?

Article says it would be in the ballpark of 10k times dimmer than Pluto.

Plus they found like a hundred other sub-planets (or whatever you call them) that are bigger than Pluto. So if Pluto counts, then we need to learn a new really long paragraph to remember the other hundred planet names.

Thus the reason we can't "see" it. But the fact remains there is something huge out there that's influencing the orbit of other known bodies in the Kuiper Belt.

If it wasn't ruled by an intergalactic committee it's bullshite.

Pluto deserves representation in the matter.
