‘Farout’- newly found object is the farthest solar system body ever spotted

And there is more out there. We will find them in time. Maybe in 100 years we will be mining this thing.

sts it's a round, pinkish dwarf planet. The same team spotted a faraway dwarf planet nicknamed "The Goblin" in October.
"All that we currently know about 2018 VG18 is its extreme distance from the sun, its approximate diameter, and its color," David Tholen, a researcher at the University of Hawaii and part of the discovery team, said in a statement.

"Because 2018 VG18 is so distant, it orbits very slowly, likely taking more than 1,000 years to take one trip around the Sun." [The Evidence for 'Planet Nine' in Our Solar System (Gallery)]





The location of 2018 VG18 compared to the orbits of other solar system objects. It lives up to its nickname "Farout"!

You mean to say that for all his years of cosmetic surgery, hair implants, tummy tucks and mirror time in an effort to be "Joe Cool", Biden isn't even "Far Out"?? Just puny li'l old 2012VP113?

He should refund hundreds of thousands of dollars to the taxpayers with an apology.
