Comment on New dwarf planet spotted at the edge of the solar system
tiny_hedgehog@lemm.ee 5 weeks agoIf we are 1AU from the sun, and this planet is 90AU from the sun, then it is between 89 and 91 AUs from earth depending on the progress of our orbits (assuming perfectly circular orbits). So they did change the frame of reference.

This dwarf planet is 90 AU from US not from the sun.
But since the dwarf planets orbit is extremely eccentric that varies heavily.

You are right. I stand corrected.
