Viewing the tenth planet

July 30th, 2005

The tenth planet, 2003-UB313, will be visible over the next six months and is currently almost directly overhead in the early-morning eastern sky, in the Cetus constellation.

It lies nine billion miles from earth so you would need a very powerful telescope to view it, such as the 48-inch Samuel Oschin Telescope at Palomar Observatory.
