Sounds like a bot name and a build version.

I'm sure it will be named eventually if it is in our solar system...they aint gonna teach kids the name "2003 UB313" in school

:P Sometimes those astronomers get attatched to thier 9 planet models.. But yeah, I believe they have some sort of meeting where they decide whether or not to add it.

Ten planets seem to be so much cooler than nine.

Why did we discover it so late? Did it just come into orbit or something?
