Geocache Description:

In keeping with Bluedog’s collection of fabulous caches of “The World’s Largest Virtual Solar System Drive”, Team Buggerme have added our cache to the growing list and to try to have a cache at every planet.

Please ensure camo has been returned as you have found it.

Discovered in 1930 by an American astronomer, Pluto was named after the Roman god of the underworld by an 11 year old English schoolgirl. Once thought of as the most distant planet from the Sun, tiny Pluto actually cuts inside Neptune's path for 20 years of its 248-year orbit. This next occurs in September 2226. Pluto, a rocky icy object, is smaller than Earth’s Moon and it would fit between Perth and Sydney. In recent years more distant objects larger than Pluto have been discovered orbiting the Sun in the so called Kuiper Belt. Pluto was reclassified as a dwarf planet in August 2006, and is now considered to be a member of the Kuiper Belt.
