Rumor has it, that a new Planet was discovered.

If you would be so kind, could any of you who know about it tell me about it? You see, Gates wants us to write a small paper on this new planet and I have no clue about it whatsoever! I don\'t have my schedule straight. It\'s either due tomarrow, or the day after.

Please lend a hand, if this paper is late, I get an automatic zero!

Note: Gates has NOTHING to do with MegaMan! Gates is a teacher at my high school!

well iv heard RUMORS, but sry to tell you that i dont know for sure, but i know it was supposed to be furhter than pluto

Oh god, Bill Gates is your teacher?!

Yes, I read about this in another topic as well. I\'ve heard nothing on the news, but I find that most of the info on various topics that I find here are relatively reliable.
However, the only thing I\'m confused about is the name of the planet. According to a book I once read, there is a group that decides the names of all celestial bodies and their features. For example, it was ruled that all things on Venus would be named after women. Likewise, the names of all the planets have been named after Roman gods except for Earth. As far as I remember, Sedna isn\'t the name of either a Roman or Greek god. That makes me wonder...

*ahem*


Yup.

Someone in my clas(freaky person)said something about this when I was in 5th grade(two years ago)since his dad works at N.A.S.A.

Well, Sedna, is a, w-e-i-r-d n-a-m-e for a c-e-l-i-s-t-i-a-l
body, \"Sedna\" means \"PEE HERE!\" well, in my mind:D.

Haha.Thats one heck of a meaning.

I think Sedna is a planet we are never going to visit.Its right behind Pluto which means no warmness.

Eh? Like there is on Pluto? Well, it is very warm if you normally like it to be -300*C! It\'s a bit warmer (try 160*C) but it\'s still about -240*C.

Heh, one heck, well, Mars means \"Gay planet without people\" and Venus means \"Toxic farts.\".

And \"Ahem\" means I am feeling slightly annoyed.

Anyway, I have heard heard a bit about Sedna. Apparently there was some type of debate about whether it should be regarded as a planet or not.
