They found a moon around the '10th planet' in our solar system, which is pretty cool. The most disturbing thing about this discovery, though, is that I just realized that they named the planet 'Xena' after 'Xena: Warrior Princess'... And even worse is that they apparently named the moon after Xena's sidekick.

FINALLY THERE IS A PLANETARY SYSTEM WITH NAMES WORSE THAN PLANET 'EARTH' AND ITS MOON CALLED 'MOON'!

I concur.
Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position.

Glad they finally are officeally saying there is a 10th planet. Of course, people were saying that about a year ago, too. bluetongue.gif And a new moon! w00t!

Oh, God... Xena? eek7.gif
We should demand a better name. Hell, "Homestar" would be better...

hmmm... I thought there were nine planets. wasn't it just that they said there could be another planet? okay...so they discoverd the moon around the 10th planet that they discoverd some ohter time...or did they just confirm that not only is there a 10th planet but that it has a moon. I am way behind on that stuff lol....

but these names. I xena and gabriel or whatever...I think they actualy sound like names of typical planetary bodies....mars, venus, pluto, tabius, europa.....xena, gabriel. seems ta fit. as long as it fits I personaly don't care why they have the names lol.

But the names of the planets are after the Greek or Roman Gods... I always get them mixed up. icon_sweatdrop.gif

Mercury, Venus, Earth (Terra), Mars, Jupiters, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto.

I fail to see how Xena is a God. eek7.gif
