Science fun: 10th planet found in solar system

CNN: "Scientists may have discovered the solar system's most distant object, more than 3 billion kilometers farther away from the sun than Pluto. NASA is set to make an official announcement later Monday U.S. time. The object -- about 10 billion kilometers from Earth -- has been given the provisional name of Sedna after the Inuit goddess of the sea ... those who argue Pluto is a planet are likely to push the claim for Sedna to become the 10th planet in the solar system. Dr. Brown will present the discovery during a NASA briefing on Monday at 1:00 p.m. EST (1800 GMT)."
