Scientists have discovered the farthest object of the solar system

This is reported by UNIAN.

Its name is 2018 VG18 and is located at a distance of 120 astronomical units from the Sun. An astronomical unit is equal to the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, which is 150 million kilometers. Astronomers call the new open space body Faraut. At that time, it was thought that the farthest object of the solar system was the dwarf planet Erid, whose distance is 96 astronomical units.

Scientists Scott Sheppard of the Carnegie Institution, David Tolen of the University of Hawaii and Chad Truhillo of the University of Northern Arizona They also confirmed this year the existence of 39, another dwarf planet within our system called the goblin. His discovery was interesting because the scientists noticed some deviation from his orbit.

This is probably due to the gravitation of a planet still vast and unknown that revolves around the Sun. However, Phantom astronomers have not noticed anything like it.

"For the moment, we can say with certainty that the VG18 2018 is an object far removed from the Sun.We can also name its approximate diameter and color.As the object is very far, its movement into orbit is very slow, it is likely to make a revolution around the Sun for 1,000 years, "said Tolen.

Scientists have discovered that, from the brilliance of the pharaoh, its diameter was about 500 km. The object is likely to have a spherical shape. And its pink hue may indicate that its surface is covered with ice.
