- MORE DWARF PLANETS AND BIG TNOS NAMED BY THE IAU TODAY YEAHHHHH 2004 GV9 → Goibniu 2005 RM43 → Rumina 2002 UX25 & moon → Uni & Tinia * Uni is weird because it's made of holey ice less dense than water 2002 XW93 → Xewioso 2013 FY27 → Chiminigagua (named 3 weeks ago, but nobody mentioned it on bsky)
- this is a continuation of this btw bsky.app/profile/astr...
- Quick aside, I'm really happy that more big TNOs/dwarf planet candidates got official names this year, 2 decades after their discovery :D 2005 RN43 → "Ritona" today 2003 AZ84 → "Achlys" on June 30 2002 AW197 → "Aya" on June 30 2002 MS4 → "Máni" on June 9 (size comparison by Lunathesilly on wiki)
