There's differences between a spaceship and a planet. Even assuming you can somehow bend visible light around the hull or something, a vehicle is going to be generating heat which has to be transferred away in some way in order to stop it melting, and some of that is going to be as EM radiation. That can be detected and measured pretty easily.
On the other hand this planet would be both cold and very far away from us and the sun, which means there's not a lot of reflected light, and the thermal radiation would be difficult to distinguish from random fluctuation without a very intensive search.

The Foundation has a couple hundred employees, but I don't think they're meant to edit articles for pay.

No please don't buy that. If you're going to buy clothes just buy some decent ones that are maybe somewhat unusual.

And in fairness, there are a couple planetoids out there bigger than Pluto. Mostly not by very much, and on pretty weird orbits too.

If it turns out to be there, I do approve Chronos/Kronos.

Actually, New Horizons proved Pluto is in fact bigger than Eris, making Pluto once again the biggest dwarf fortress.

To be fair, in Astronomy, if observed values end up the same order of magnitude as predicted values it is usually remarkable.

Remember, the temperature of the surface of stars is approximately 0K. For the purposes of some calculations anyway.

I thought it was going to be a cirlcejerk about how Wikipedia was shit, but someone probably got salty over GG or something idk.

Some thread on GD just got deleted for, what I can tell, no reason. No bans in the log no locked thread with some final post no nothing. wot

Someone posted gg8 b8 on it

It wasn't even one page in last I saw it though. Oh well, I guess some people just have to shut it down before anyone discusses something they don't like.

You have to set it up though, so if you don't know about it, it won't be playing anything.
