Astronomers call this boundary the Kuiper cliff, because the density of space rocks drops off so steeply. What caused it? The only answer seems to be a 10th planet. We're not talking about Quaoar or Sedna: this is a massive object, as big as Earth or Mars, that has swept the area clean of debris.

The evidence for the existence of "Planet X" is compelling, says Alan Stern, an astronomer at the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, Colorado. But although calculations show that such a body could account for the Kuiper cliff (Icarus, vol 160, p 32), no one has ever seen this fabled 10th planet.

There's a good reason for that. The Kuiper belt is just too far away for us to get a decent view. We need to get out there and have a look before we can say anything about the region. And that won't be possible for another decade, at least. NASA's New Horizons probe, which will head out to Pluto and the Kuiper belt, is scheduled for launch in January 2006. It won't reach Pluto until 2015, so if you are looking for an explanation of the vast, empty gulf of the Kuiper cliff, watch this space."

Newsflash, there are at present NO known planets outside the Kuiper Belt, so I find it hard to believe there's evidence for a tenth.

I didn't watch it, but I assume he would be looking forward to this event, as all Christians look forward to the return of Christ ( which would happen very soon after the emergence of Satan and the Apocalypse. )

Ahh Eurovision. They should call it LOL-o-vision. <-- This joke is actually better than all of the entries combined.

Latvia's entry Pirates Of The Sea - Wolves Of The Sea is easily the best. But Zlad and Günther would kick their sorry asses all the way to Benidorm.

"Ooooh... you touch my ta la la".

Can I watch these videos?

These videos are not available for viewing/downloading. Once again, this is simply a research project that seeks to find out more details about how YouTube locates and takes down videos accused of copyright violation.

That's pretty cool. It's funny that Dattebayo is so high ( Fansub group for Naruto, Bleach, etc. ) on the stats page.

Yep, especially given their "Don't 'tube our shit bro" stance.
