It is like the herp. Great pictures OP. Thank you so much for posting. It seems to me from everything I have read, is that no one REALLY knows the exact size. Though it looks bigger than previously let on. Definitely More than 3 km. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 22035675  United States11/23/2013 06:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I agree. Astro is the perfect person to look at this! I dont take photography through a telescope, so i cant help with verifying the purity of the picture like he can. But what my gut tells me is that we are not looking at an unedited pic to begin with. I am pretty sure before the photographer submitted the pic he had already altered it to get that pretty black background and colour. So without knowing how he might have altered the image, we can hardly look at a photoshop job someone else did to it and say it must be true. In other words you have no idea right? |

In fact, in the op's video what people alos need to realize is he could haev made it appear even smaller. Just because he stopped manipulating his pixels there to make it look big, does not mean it could not be made to appear smaller. i could play with photoshop and have the "nucleus" look about as small as i want, but i wont because it is still not honest, even if it is a more accurate depiction, it is still not an honest manipulation. :malefav: I love this place!! |

And since it grew wings, would not that make it a "winged planet" Quoting: Anu, father of Enki When it comes to planets size does matter. Defintion of a planet is below: [link to www2.ess.ucla.edu] Could be impossible to tell because nobody really knows what the orbit is. This could be a one time visit. Possible inter-stellar planet. Possible dwarf star with its own orbiting companions. It could even be a fragment of a much larger body that is who knows where. It doesn't seem to be a snowball. Government...
