So is a sednoid a Kuiper belt object? Personally I’m not convinced that the Oort Cloud exists. As far as I know, we’ve never seen a comet nucleus while it’s in the Oort Cloud.

Sednoid.
Just doesn’t “sound” right. Doesn’t roll off of the tongue properly.
Needs another vowel in there.

Yes, I agree. The OORT Cloud is just a theory.

And if it existed, I’d expect to see Oort Clouds around every other star.................

Pluto is always planet 9.

Pluto will always be Plan 9 in Outer Space.

The union votes to demote Pluto.

And then, under better circumstances, Pluto can be reinstated and Pythagoras vindicated. Long live the tetractys 1+2+3+4

It was strictly a political move. One can tell from the fact that it was a total waste of everyone's time.
