Has a tenth planet been discovered? A newly discovered object, located more than twice the distance of Pluto, is expected to be at least as large as Pluto and probably larger. The sun is on the right.
While orbiting the planet during their June 1998 mission, the crew of the Space Shuttle Discovery photographed this view of two moons of Earth. Thick storm clouds are visible in the lovely blue planet's nurturing atmosphere and, what was then Earth's largest artificial moon, the spindly Russian Mir Space Station can be seen above the planet's limb. The bright spot to the right of Mir is Earth's very large natural satellite, The Moon. http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap050430.html
