Astronomers have a massive breakthrough as they discover a weird and very bright extraordinary object in the far reaches of our solar system. Is it a planet? Is it a block of ice? Whatever it is, it’s bigger than Pluto. Fascinating science video from BBC Horizon show ‘Bye Bye Planet Pluto.’

They are not KBOs – there are over 30 exoplanets out there past Pluto – documented and observed.
2012 galactic alignment may reverse our poles – put the planet will not flip – the only thing that will happen during a pole shift is a change in coriolis effect. Solar flare burst are potentially disastrous to our energy grid. Tesla towers are the key – Tesla was a genius way ahead of his time and by FAR the greatest inventor of the modern era.

What about the …
What about the Hubble telescope ? We have seen pictures of other galaxys and to the beginning of the universe. How come they dont see all the planets in this solarsystem then or why dont they have close up pictures of the planets in the solarsystem or this galaxy?

The end comment is childish. Now if the object rotates on an orbital axis then it’s a planet.

Edgeworth-Kuiper …
Edgeworth-Kuiper Belt objects are objects in the large band of objects theorized by Fred Whipple and independantly Frederick Leonard, later more concretely by Kenneth Edgeworth, then later given a hypothetical origin by Gerard Kuiper, in 1930, 1933, 1943 then 1951 respectively. The belt was first actually observed by David Jewett in 1987.
The Kuiper belt spans roughly 42-28 AU from the sun (outside Neptune’s orbit, way inside the Oort Cloud.)

well we arent exactly one of the giants of the solar system, but we are still one of the most special of all the planets. Sometimes tiny dots can move mountains.

But it’s barely bigger than pluto, which is what annoys me. I want them to find Nibiru which is supposedly as large as Jupiter, I want a fantastic display not a tiny iny bitty dot.

It’s the area dominating the outer edges of the solar system housing tons of asteroids.

Wow, that was a secret to them. They have no idea what is really out there. We could see Nibiru now from Chile, now that’s a secrete. Nibiru is about 3 times the size of the Earth.
