New Moon Found Orbiting 10th Planet
| Quote From Source: | Astronomers say they have found a new moon orbiting our solar system's recently discovered 10th planet.
Scientists at an observatory on the U.S. island of Hawaii discovered the moon three weeks ago. They estimate it is slightly more than 250 kilometers in diameter, about one-10th the size of its far-flung planet, which is known informally as Xena.
