Is this the “GAY” planet perchance?
yes...it has a weird orbit...it circles uranus
I wonder if it is similar to the planet Gallifrey? Maybe more like Sedna.
The Doctor: “Well, perfect to look at, maybe. And it was, it was beautiful. They used to call it the Shining World of the Seven Systems. And on the continent of Wild Endeavour, in the mountains of Solace and Solitude, there stood the Citadel of the Time Lords. The oldest and most mighty race in the universe.”
“The sky’s a burnt orange,with a citadel enclosed in a mighty glass dome, shining under the twin suns. Beyond that the mountains go on forever. Slopes of deep red grass, capped with snow.”
The Doctor: I lied to you. ‘Cause I liked it. I could pretend, just for a bit, I could imagine they were still alive underneath the burnt orange sky. I’m not just a TIme Lord. I’m the last of the Time Lords. The Face of Boe was wrong. There’s no one else.
Martha: What happened?
The Doctor: There was a war—a Time War. The Last Great Time War. My people fought a race called the Daleks. For the sake of all creation. And they lost. We lost. Everyone lost. They’re all gone now. My family. My friends. Even that sky. Ah, you should have seen it, that old planet. The second sun would rise in the south and the mountains would shine. The leaves on the trees were silver. When they caught the light every morning it looked like a forest on fire.

Poor Pluto. At least it has some company out there now on the island of misfit not-good-enough-to-be-real planets.
Only 6 months until the latest doctor starts his reign. I can’t wait.

I'm hoping it's bacon. An entire planet of bacon.
A planet full of women who look like Jessica Alba would be my first choice, then one with no liberals and then a bacon one.
Hmmm. You present a very difficult set of choices. Back to the observatory to look for a tie breaker.

The dwarf planet that gets no respect

I haven’t seen any dates as to when they’ll start broadcasting new episodes.
And this makes a significant difference to anybody’s life besides the guy who discovered the pink planet because of..... what?
> I don’t want to be insensitive to the Plutophiles out there, but enough about Pluto, OK?. I’ve got my own mourning to do. By the same decision that relegated Pluto to a mere dwarf planet, Xena (aka 2003 UB313), which I discovered 19 months earlier ago, also got the official boot. For the past year it had been mostly known as “the tenth planet” for good reason: it was the largest object found in the solar system in 150 years and was bigger, even, than Pluto itself. This was the discovery that ultimately forced the hand of astronomers. Either this object was going to have to be called a planet like Pluto or both were going to have to go. When I discovered it and realized that it was, indeed, bigger than Pluto, I immediately called my wife and excitedly told her “I found a planet!”
