Description
Adler's newest sky show explores the largest of Pluto's neighbors in the Kuiper belt and invites visitors to join in the search for a new ninth planet. Follow Mike Brown and his team at CalTech as they uncover dwarf worlds like the remarkably bright Eris; Haumea, an egg-shaped object rotating incredibly fast; and Sedna, whose orbit takes it deep into the far reaches of the Solar System. Is there a new planet beyond these distant objects? Plus, tag along on Mike Brown's first night searching for the ninth planet at the Subaru Telescope in Hawaii.
