WASHINGTON - An object may record as a dwarf planet in the solar system's farthest. Object named V774104 it has a distance of 9.5 million miles from the Sun, or 2-3 times the distance of Pluto-Sun.Reporting from Space, Friday (13/11/2015), the planet is much smaller than Pluto. Found last week with Japanese-made Subaru telescope in Hawaii, scientists have not been able to define and categorize the orbit of the dwarf planet.
"We can not classify this object because we do not know its orbit. There is a possibility if the celestial bodies that are part of other solar systems that have orbits extreme. Its orbit may have been influenced by a planet or another star," said Scott Sheppard of the Carnegie Institution for Science ,
This discovery recently published on Tuesday, November 10 at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society's (AAS) Division for Planetary Sciences. Sheppard stated that this discovery proves that the solar system is much larger than previously thought.
Dwarf planet Eris is the object farthest from the Sun earlier. It is 97 times the Earth-Sun distance. This planet and the planet beyond the orbit of Neptune called the Kuiper ice wrapped Belt because it is too far from the sun. (kem)
