Pluto

Fig. 4.13 Pluto Field

Clyde Tembough discovered Pluto in 1930. It has an orbit about 6 billion km away from the

sun. It has a diameter of about 2300 km (the earth’s moon is 3476km) and a mass more

than 1/400 of the earth. This frozen stone clump has a thin atmosphere of methane and

surface temperatures of – 210 °C. It has an orbital angle of 17°, which is unique in the

planetary world. It also has a strong elliptical orbit causing a crossing of the Neptune orbit.

The inner part of the solar system contains four similar, more rocky planets: Mercury,

Venus, Earth and Mars. This is followed by an asteroid belt containing millions of irregu-

larly shaped stones. Further out are the four gas/ice giants, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and

Neptune. Pluto is the farthest planet out in our solar system. It is a very ‘small’ frozen rock

which might previously have been a satellite of Neptune. Many astrologists and astrono-

mers talk about a 10th planet being further out in the solar system. This planet would have

a mass twice to five times greater than the earth. This would explain the changes in the

orbits of the outer planets. Since Pluto’s mass is very small, another planet is probably

causing this effect. The angle of the 10th planet’s orbit would probably be about 75°.

The planetary field is the central area in our solar system. It is a very little part of the

solar system. The cometary field is estimated to be 3850 times bigger than the planetary

field. The outer edge our solar system almost touches other solar systems. The nearest

solar system is Alpha Centauri. All together these solar systems move around the center

of the Milky Way at a speed of 300 km/sec. It takes more than 200 million years to finish a

complete cycle around the center of our Milky Way.
