Have you heard the news about the potentially tenth (or ninth) planet?

They theorize that it is about the size of Mars :^)

Persephone?

@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.
