    is this the same one announced several months ago, the one they were (or are) going to call Xena - or is this yet ANOTHER large Kuiper Belt planetary object.
    if so, this could change our thinking about planetary status according to size, distance from the sun, orbit. very, very interesting.

    I heard Bob Castellini called NASA and told them to bring in another planet to push Pluto....

    This is a new one. Bigger than Pluto.

    Yes, some refinements are necessary to the classification system. Most astronomers don't consider Pluto to be a planet, for example, since it's smaller than many moons and has a highly eccentric orbit. Most laymen, however, think it is a planet, because that's what they learned in fourth grade.

    Things change. Science, and all that.

    I hear Pluto isn't recogonized in Europe... kinda like how David Hasseloff isn't recognized in the US.

    The solution is clear

    Destroy Pluto

    We have asteroids running around with bigger mass the Pluto, it's silly that it's still considered a planet, it's really just a rock hanging around the solar system waiting for the big planets to accept it

    I suspect Pluto, may be plotting against the new planet already.

    I can assure you that Pluto, as the Italian god of the underworld, is planning something very, very messy.

    Y'all are trashin' Pluto, but I think Pluto's hot! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right?

    Is this the other Earth that directly on the other side of the sun as us? And everything is opposite over there? If so how do they like the great economy and low gas prices?
