Fine Art Prints From Science Photo Library
Sedna, Pluto and the Moon
Sedna, Pluto and the Moon, computer artwork. Sedna (top) is one of the largest objects in the Kuiper Belt of the outer solar system. It is a candidate for a tenth planet and its diameter is estimated as up to 1600 kilometres, smaller in size than the ninth planet Pluto (centre, 2300 kilometres) and the Moon (bottom, 3476 kilometres). Earth is seen in the background. Sedna orbits the Sun far beyond Pluto, at a distance from the Sun that varies from 130-13 billion kilometres. The Kuiper Belt is a collection of mostly small icy bodies that orbit between and beyond the planets Neptune and Pluto. Sedna was discovered in 2004

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork showcases the celestial trio of Sedna, Pluto, and the Moon against the backdrop of Earth. The image offers a mesmerizing perspective on our vast solar system and its diverse objects. At the top of this cosmic composition is Sedna, one of the largest entities residing in the Kuiper Belt—a region beyond Neptune that teems with icy bodies. With an estimated diameter of up to 1600 kilometers, Sedna competes in size with Pluto—once considered our ninth planet—which occupies the center position in this visual ensemble. Beneath them lies our very own Moon, boasting a larger diameter than both Sedna and Pluto at 3476 kilometers. The sheer scale depicted here allows us to appreciate just how small these celestial bodies are compared to Earth—the distant blue orb seen in the background. It's worth noting that while Pluto was once classified as a planet, it now holds dwarf planet status due to revised definitions by astronomers. Sedna's unique orbit takes it far beyond even Pluto's reach—spanning distances from 130-13 billion kilometers away from our Sun. Discovered relatively recently in 2004, this enigmatic object continues to intrigue scientists as they unravel more about its nature and origins within our ever-expanding understanding of astrophysics. This awe-inspiring artwork not only invites contemplation on space exploration but also serves as a reminder of humanity's insatiable curiosity about what lies beyond our home planet.
