Question

i am really interested in knowing the name of the new planet added thanks

Answer 1

astronomers are trying to define the word planet, but it isn't easy. many favor the reclassification of the bodies in the solar system into three groups: the rocky terrestrials, the gas giants, and the ice dwarfs. there are hundreds of known ice dwarfs including pluto, quaoar, sedna, 2002 EL61, and 2003 UB313 (the official name of xena), and 2003 UB313 is about five percent bigger than pluto. this is called the kuiper belt, pluto was the first kuiper belt object discovered.

Answer 2

Don't think there is a new planet but there are only 8 planets as of soon. One planet (Pluto) has been stripped off its planet status and demoted to an asteroid. The pnemonic My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming Planets no llonger works. You better had hope they come up with a new planet though, with its name beginning with P, else we are all doomed to not remembering the names of the planets!

Answer 3

the correct answer is

IAU constituted a committee to find new definition of planet. this will be given this august.

the definition presently used is 75 years old. taking various developments and other factors this committe would propose new def. of planet.

After this new definition comes they will decide wether to include the so called new planets as planets or not.

second thing regarding pluto its still a planet. even its future would be decided after the new definition is announced by IAU (international astronomical union).

Answer 4

No new planets have been 'added'.

You probably refer to the Kuiper Belt object, one of many recently discovered.
