Why do we have SVG files for the photos of Jovian moons? That's the weirdest use of SVG I've seen so far. --[[User:Makkachin|Makkachin]] ([[User talk:Makkachin|talk]]) 10:33, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

Re "Search for additional moons, and any rings".

One of the stated tertiary objects is to look for rings. Does anyone know where this comes from? Is there any stated record of this being a goal? Is there any reason to believe any of these bodies could have rings? [[Special:Contributions/62.232.250.50|62.232.250.50]] ([[User talk:62.232.250.50|talk]]) 11:36, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

New Horizons mission to the Planet Pluto

I believe if you will check, you will find that NASA has NO official position on whether Pluto is a Planet or an Dwarf Planet and as such, I think the first sentence should read, Planet Pluto not Dwarf Planet. There maybe individual Scientist who work at NASA (But not paid by NASA) who support the View on Dwarf Worlds however. Magnum Serpentine (talk) 20:59, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That is irrelevant as it is not for national body like NASA to decide. The International Astronomical Union is the only authority which decides astronomical nomenclature. The IAU defined Pluto as a Dwarf Planet. ChiZeroOne (talk) 21:36, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

VNH0004, not VNH2004

"Jan 2015 Observation of KBO VNH2004"

It is VNH0004, not VNH2004.

Rings?

Re "Search for additional moons, and any rings".

One of the stated tertiary objects is to look for rings. Does anyone know where this comes from? Is there any stated record of this being a goal? Is there any reason to believe any of these bodies could have rings? 62.232.250.50 (talk) 11:36, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
