+thexfile Subscriber² Posted September 18, 2024 Subscriber² Share Posted September 18, 2024 Eleven objects found at the extremities of the solar system could mark the location of a 'Kuiper Belt 2.' A brand-new group of frozen objects, orbiting the sun out beyond the distant Kuiper Belt, has been spotted by the Subaru telescope, working with NASA's New Horizons mission to find new targets for the spacecraft to investigate. "If this is confirmed, it would be a major discovery," said Fumi Yoshida, from the University of Occupational and Environmental Health Sciences and the Planetary Exploration Research Center, Chiba Institute of Technology, in a statement. https://www.space.com/second-kuiper-belt-solar-system-larger-than-thought Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1446421-2nd-kuiper-belt-our-solar-system-may-be-much-larger-than-thought/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
