A bit bigger than Pluto, 2003 UB313, is THREE TIMES farther away than Pluto.  Neat :)

I bet this will bring up the whole "Pluto is not a planet" whatever deal.

I thought they had already discovered two potential planets about a year ago? Maybe they've already deemed them not.

Yeah, I read about one they discovered a few months ago.  It's posted here some where.  I don't think they have been considered planets or not yet.

This was probably about four to five months ago, not too sure though.
