However, the astronomers of Faraut have not noticed anything like it.

"We can now say with certainty that the VG18 2018 is an object far removed from the Sun.We can also name its approximate diameter and color.Since the object is very far, its orbiting is very slow It is likely to make a revolution around the Sun for 1000 years ", – said Tolen.
