New Dwarf Planet

Scientists have discovered a dwarf planet which orbits in a strange place in the solar system.  It's beyond the Kuiper Belt, but far within the Oort Cloud.  The dwarf planet Sedna was previously discovered in the same area, but it was seen as a fluke, orbiting in a basically empty space.  But with this, there might be good reason to think that there's a whole bunch of objects floating out there.  It's an interesting development, and it just goes to show there is still so much to learn about our own solar system.
