PLUTO!

Pluto was forst discovered bt Clyde W. Tombaugh who was searching for Planet X, continuing Percieval Lowell's quest. It happened to be in 1930, that he photographed 3 images of the new 'planet' Pluto.

It lies 5 913 520 000 kilometres (3 672 300 000 miles) from the Sun.

Pluto is very hard to be seen by even very powerful telescopes, so little is known about this little dwarf planet. Pluto orbits around the Sun once in 248 Earth years. Pluto has an estimated diameter of about 1,400 miles (2,300 kilometers), less than a fifth that of Earth.
