Is the planet sedna in this solar system?
Question:
Sedna orbits the sun and is therefore a part of the solarsystem. It isn´t a planet it is a Kuiperbelt object.
Is sedna a planet in our System. Or another word for 1 of the 9 planets that are Generally known as.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.
I know Pluto is not considered a planet anymore, but I still included it.
Sedna doesn't appear classified as a official planet just yet.
i agree with that one answer pluto is and always will be a planet of the solar system. one of the things that shot pluto down as a planet was not having a moon which is proof how idiotic that group of scientists are. mercury is the opposite of pluto where it is ice. mercury is a sea of molten lava. and contrary to that one answer humans have an ego bigger than space itself. scientist now days think they know it all on what a planet is and etc. i can gurantee u years down the road pluto will be given back its status as a planet. and also it will end being in school books that the solar system is made of ten planets then eleven. we do have great technology. however we dont know not in a practical way how strong the pull of the sun is. there me a planetary body that is at the limit of the sun's pull. but is made up of some material that the mass keeps in rotation of our sun. could we check sure we could even with our limited abilities take one of the shuttles and for its final mission let it carry nothing but fuel as its cargo and let it be controlled from earth only. and let it fly at full burn far as possible. sending back pictures and other data
umm..sedna is a trans neptunian object...so therefore it is in our solar system...its not a planet...rather its a dwarf planet...at the time of its discovery it was the most distant object in our solar system
Yes Sedna is a part of our solar system. But it is wrong to say it wouldn't be a planet ... it may be a dwarf planet, we just don't know for sure yet.
And, it is definitively N O T an object of the Kupier belt, (as like as another user here claims)
Sedna belongs to a group of objects with a very elliptical revolution around the sun and to a group of objects still not classified yet. But it does certainly NOT belong to the Kupier belt because it's orbit is way bigger than this belt. (but still not as far away as the so called Oort's cloud.)
yes, sedna is in this solar system. it has come from the galaxy andromeda, where there had been one sun explodation and sedna was thrown into this milky way's, solar system. sedna is 1 and a half times larger than the pluto, but it is not clear that sedna is a planet or not. by 2048 it will be clear about this. the scientific name of sedna is UB313 2003.
No, if you mean our solar system.
