Would this be called a planet or an asteroid, have the IAU come to a solid definition of both ??

Had to check up meaning of TNO. It is Trans-Neptunian Object (ie. its orbit is outside that if Neptune). You learn something new every day

Cool! I was expecting more of these TNOs to show up but it's nice to see them being found.
