Is it possible that Pluto no end to the wonders of the solar system? The answer has always been yes, if anything, now many experts are full of hope with recent studies. Behind the orbit of this now cataloged, Dwarf Planet , called Kuiper belt .
is This is a set of comet bodies that orbit the Sun at a distance of 30 to 100 astronomical units (equivalentente to the approximate average distance between our planet of the sun). Objects that it can be found are known as transneptunian .
Now, a study by the Complutense University of Madrid and the University Cambridge published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society , considers possible to find planemos (planetary mass objects) in this area of space, being primarily responsible for the orbits of dwarf planets and asteroids describe precise translations, despite its distance to the sun.
If confirmed, these new hypotheses, it would be necessary to reformulate certain models of how our solar system will they be super-Earths or modest size as Mars or Venus? Of course, the possibility of life is zero because of the low temperatures, among other factors.
The NASA often bombard us with news of the discovery of new outer planets, which we are not able to achieve access than the the sight of the telescope, given its remoteness, usually hundreds of light years. This is not the case, as they embarked on exploring the confines of the system.
The spacecraft New Horizons , has been the first mission devoted entirely to the exploration of Kuiper belt , was released on 16 January 2006. It is scheduled to arrive at Pluto on July 14, 2015. It is expected that soon continue their way this fast-paced mission astronomical exploration, ¿locate any of these alleged new planets?
