An icy, unknown world might lurk in the distant reaches of our solar system beyond the orbit of Pluto, according to a new computer model.The hidden world — thought to be much bigger than Pluto based on the model — could explain unusual features of the Kuiper Belt, a region of space beyond Neptune littered with icy and rocky bodies. Its existence would satisfy the long-held hopes and hypotheses for a "Planet X" envisioned by scientists and sci-fi buffs alike.

i admit i've always been fascinated by this ever since 4th grade, when i corrected my older sister who believed there are 9 planets in the solar system.
"actually, there's a 10th!"
she didnt believe me and even mocked me about this.
well it turns out that as usual, i was right.
and maybe the sumerians were too.
