The Planet Eris

[pkrska]

Is Nibiru Eris or Comet Elenin? So confusing. Can't verify any of this. Infact it could all be hogwash. Time will tell.

Turn your phone off next time.

Ach jahh ... mit English ist not so godt ... ;-) ... but still better than your Danish, I bet.

You are absolutely right of course, Pluto was 'degraded' in August 2006 at the astronomers conference in Prag in order to let the Solar system's planet belt end with Neptune ... and what larger objects there may be found from that point onwards are now called 'plutoides'.

But at the same event Ceres was 'raised' to be a dwarf planet from the asteroid it had been since 1854 (planet since 1801).

Nice video, minus the annoying phone ring sound effects.

[LacyB71]

Hey don't complain at least you didn't get up and look for your phone like I did LMBO and no I'm not kidding I'm such a ding dong LOL.

I hardly think that Mike Brown's team regrets the name Eris. They knew that the discovery would set the cat among the pigeons, and from a scientific point of view anything that does that is a credit to the people who discovered it. Besides which the name has counter-culture kudos, given that Eris was a major figure in the Illuminati trilogy.

[babbocke]

hat illuminati has to do with Eris? lol

[conradleviston]

Look up "The Illuminatus! Trilogy" on wikipedia.

[agerby2]

Have a nice trip ... its severely cold out there.

[babbocke]

aint Eris a Dwarf planet like pluto ? its the largest of the dwarfs if im right

[agerby2]

Sure is ... and just like a dwarf rabbit is still a rabbit, a dwarf planet is still a planet ...

[babbocke]

and is Eris in our solar system or beyond it ?

[agerby2]

Eris is within the Kuiper Belt (beyond Pluto), which is concidered to be the outskirts of our solar system and the hunting ground for all the planethunters. Beyond that we have the Oort Cloud with is the home of comets and this cloud is now seen as the outer parameter of what is known as our solar system ... pretty vast ...

[babbocke]

i wonder in which side of galaxy coul be a planet with water and life

[agerby2]

Me too ...

[gangslife666]

i can reach that planet by my bike

[agerby2]

Nope ... Eris is so far out (in distance) that the twain shall never meet.

[bigpappiortiz111]

so is this niribu or planet x? the planet that supposedly will interferes with our orbit?

[agerby2]

thanks ... it is interesting to follow this ongoing and very erislike strife concerning the definition of what is a planet and what is not

[nomaddiver13]

very informative...... eris sounds alot cooler than xena
