There's something orbiting the sun, way, way beyond the distant realm of Pluto.
A team of astronomers recently spotted the farthest-known object in the solar system using a telescope atop Hawaii's lofty Mauna Kea, and announced the discovery on Monday. The object, formally called "2018 VG18" but nicknamed "Farout," orbits some 120 Astronomical Units(120*93million miles!)from the sun.
