Another Planet!

Scientists recently had to disclose the existence of a new planet coz a hacker threatened that he would expose the secret if they didnt do that officially!! Now where does this put us? A typical oxymoron with technology finding something and at the same time threatening something...come to think about it its really funny.
Facts abut this planet...
It is the farthest-known object in the solar system - currently 14,4 billion kilometres away from the Sun, or about three times Pluto's current distance from the Sun. and if i remember rite it takes 540 years to complete travelling its orbit. and also its elliptical orbit is slightly tilted at some angle... read this link to find out more techie stuff

Ok u mite ask me what we would do with another planet???
let me answer that question for you...wat cant we do?

* NASA will go crazy exploring this planet with so many missions...so lots of jobs generated....
* we will analyze if it has liveable conditions...and may b when this world the earth comes to an end..we can shift there b4 that...
* since its the farthest planet it is easier to live there as i guess it will not b swallowed by the sun..as recent reports say that the distance frm the sun to the closest planets is decreasing...
* will type in more in a few hours...
