A New Celestial Object has just been Discovered in our Solar System
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
The newly found 'dwarf planet' is lurking way out in the edges, some 13.6 billion km (8.5 billion miles) from the Sun. The Iowa-sized object - for now known as 2014 UZ224 takes 1,100 years to complete a single orbit of the Sun and could soon join the ranks of the five established dwarf planets in the Solar System: Ceres, Eris, Haumea, Makemake, and most famous of all, Pluto. While only five dwarf planets have been officially recognised in the Solar System, it’s thought that there could be at least 100 more lurking in the Kuiper Belt - a region beyond the orbit of Neptune that’s thought to be teeming with comets, asteroids, and small planetary bodies. 2014 UZ224 discovered by a team of undergraduate students led by physicist David Gerdes from the University of Michigan. The discovery has now been confirmed by the International Astronomical Union. 2014 UZ224 is estimated to have a diameter of around 530 km (329 miles). The newly discovered object may help find other such bodies and perhaps even the mysterious Planet Nine, a planet 10 times the size of Earth orbiting the sun in the far outreaches of our solar system. Several studies have found that other celestial objects are impacted by the actions of an unseen player and most in the field suspect it is a big planet.

Such interesting information it boggles the mind. Imagine a planet so far away from the sun slowly orbiting, FAR OUT!

i t deserves a cooler name what should it be.
-
no parece original natural!!!???....

Thanks again!
-
nice cgi

Thank you for your work. I've gotten slack for referencing that an "object" must be just outside the Kuiper Belt in order to make the Scripture: One day to the LORD is 1,000 years for man. Could the New Jerusalem described in the Book of Revelation (1,500 square miles at its square base and 1,500 high [cube or pyramid shape?] be what God is telling us without telling us? Remember Scripture also includes that men will run and hide "for fear of WHAT IS COMING". (emphasis mine). "what is coming" has always been interpreted as referring to time, as what is coming in the future. But, "what is coming" could also mean: what is coming from above, just like the angels told the disciples when Jesus ASCENDED into heaven before the disciples' eyes: Jesus is coming (descend) just as you saw Him ascend. Plus the Scripture: When you see these things, LOOK UP for your redemption draws near (emphasis mine). And the Scriptures that say we will see Jesus IN THE CLOUDS, and coming FROM HEAVEN with His saints. So expect signs from the sky.

I love this channel.

strange how they get all this info about size ,orbit without seeing it :)
great video's as always good info -
Earth does not circulate around the Sun, but it is the Sun that circulates around Earth. <3
-
wow very nice video thank you
-
it's pretty cool seeing the planet and the sun light really weak due to its distance
-
Thanks for sharing
