@AnnoyingAf: What do they mean, not sure if it's legit? What space laws are there for it to break?

@Bottomschmackenloudenboomer: They haven't seen it. They're just observing fucked up orbits and theorizing that it might be a planet with a mass equivalent to Mars. It might just be a random phenomenon.
@AnnoyingAf: Oh, in that case nobody really knows if it is a planet or not. I'll accept it as a planet when it has been officially proved to be a planet and with no movements or properties that justify any description using the R-word. If it's been described with the R-word it is not legit in my eyes.
@firefall: It doesn't have a name yet, since they don't know if it's real or not. But they've observed wonky orbits in the Kupier belt, and since that was how Neptune got discovered they just said fuck it and called it a planet.
@AnnoyingAf: Persephone (beyond Pluto) has been periodically discovered, deduced into existence, observed, and derided, for about 40 years. It's either something mars/earth size or a small gas giant or an escaped moon of Uranus or ... idk. I've lost track of all the times it's been reported/named, and whether it currently exists or doesnt.
