Sedna = #10?

[Reephdweller]

NASA is scheduling a news briefing for today regarding an ususual solar object that is beyond pluto. Some are even suggesting that this object named Sedna could even be the 10th planet (http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/printpage/0,5942,8968352,00.html) in our solar system.

Full NASA story... (http://www.nasa.gov/home/hqnews/2004/mar/HQ_n04040_solar_object.html)

It will be pretty interesting if it is actually another planet.

it's not a planet.

or, they should wait until they find the other dozen or so rocks this size or larger orbiting the sun now. they're out there. A few zillion things orbit the sun; and the arguement on pluto still smolders, so...

It was a typo at NASA. Some tech monkey over there with a fetish for "The Facts Of Life" wanted to name it "Edna", after Edna Garrett played by elderly hottie Charlotte Rae.

He has since been fired.

She's big enough; I mean look how all those kids are gravitationally attracted to her.

This sounds a little more accurate. "Object," as opposed to "planet."

Scientists find most distant object in solar system (http://www.cnn.com/2004/TECH/space/03/14/planet.discovery/index.html)

I know right, lets not lose touch with reality here.

I really hope it's a planet or something cause the thought that it could be aliens or something really scares the shit out of me!!!!!! I hope Baby Jesus is listening and watching out for us cause we'll need his super-powers if it does turn out to be Klingons or something!!!!!

Imagine if we sent men to Edna? Shit, I'd be like....*counting on fingers*.....I'd be 66 by the time I got there!! That's almost as old as Bad Touch!!!

I don't believe Sedna will be labled as a planet. It is smaller than Pluto. In October of 2002, another piece of rock of similar make-up was discovered and named Quaoar.

There is something big out there, beyond the Kuiper belt and could very well be a 10th planet.

The Sumerians, almost 6,000 years ago, knew there were 9 planets - and a 10th, which they called Nibiru.

Here is a Sumerian artifact that depicts the plants around the sun, including the moon, which they considered a planet.

Like Mizzle said, they are out there. Probably at a different degree angle than what the other planets lie on, making it much harder to spot.

Sorry to dissapoint everyone, but it was a mechanical malfunction. We weren't looking beyond Pluto, we were looking at Arizona.

It was "Sedona" not "Sedna".

I still think it's threatening and we should blow it up.

Sedna? no, it's called "Rupert" and it's filled with a bunch of confused aliens watching TV and ordering from earth mail order.

It's awful (http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewnews.html?id=937) that Hubble is being left to waste out there only 400 miles away. Is this great scientific instrument just going to die from neglect and spending money on war and the acquisition of oil for Shrub?

Fuck it. Just let it float away. It's no big deal.

First of all, this thread is definitive proof that the whole "funny picture" fad is no longer funny. Not at all. Not even a little.



Anyway, I think this discovery probably provides evidence to disprove Pluto's status as a planet, rather than the finding of a new planet. They're just Kuiper belt objects.

Pluto shouldn't even be considered a planet. I think just based on the patterns in the planets' densities, Pluto should just be considered the piece of ice rock it is. Sedna therefore don't count either. Fuck Sedna.

I just like the name "Fat Robert."

A couple weeks ago, there was a front page photo on the Washington Post of some Haitian rebels, and one of them had a bootleg Fat Albert shirt that just had Albert's face and the name "Fat Robert" below it. I think I like the idea that 3rd world countries live in total fear of the litigation terror and power of Bill Cosby.

Even more interestingly, the orbit of Sedna is extreme elliptical, in contrast to all of the much closer planets, and it takes 10,500 years to circle the sun.


10,500 years. isn't that the 'magic' date that those history channel specials say was the time the sphinx, great pyramids, and several other great structures were built?
odd.

I wish they would put a few other telescopes out there, further and further out and beam the data to us like they are doing with the Mars rovers.

When I was taking astronomy in college the professor had this phrase trick to remember the names of the planets in their respective orbits using the first letter of the planets name, "Marys velvet eyes makes John stay up nights pondering", for Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune & Pluto. Could they have named it Sedna so the phrase now ends in "Sex"?

calm yourself and check your party loyalties at the door, this is a scientific discussion.

Evil Bush isn't destroying the telescope for shits and giggles, it's scheduled to be destroyed in favor of the more improved Webb Space Telescope. It's like putting a new carburetor in a car you're planning on junking.

Wormwood is right, we gotta blow that sumbitch up.
Who knows what kinda alien bugs or fungus or bacteria it carries?

We gotta get them before they get us!
