Since ancient times we have had an aggressive attitude to learn something new. Due to which we currently have a lot of knowledge about any galaxy that is a very light year away. We have known about the planets Marcus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Venus in our Indian mythology for a long time. But as time went on, people improved and people knew that we have a total of 9 planets in this solar system. But later people made a division of the planet which is known as dwarf planet. At present our solar system has a total of 8 planets and 5 dwarf planets.
Scientists still do not know where our solar system ends. However, according to scientists, the Kuiper belt is the last frontier of our solar system. Many objects in this belt are still very mysterious to scientists.
Scientists always keep an eye on this belt.
By the end of 2018, scientists noticed something unusual in the Kuiper Belt.
Scientists later discovered the planet during February 2019. And in the month of February 2021, the word of this planet was officially brought before everyone. Although scientists still put this planet in the category of dwarf planet. The reason is that the size of this planet is not like a normal planet. Although this planet is far away from us. This planet is about 137 AU away from us. Due to which scientists could not know some special information about this planet. However, according to scientists, this planet may be the 9th planet of our solar system in the future.
This planet is orbiting our sun very slowly. According to these scientists, this planet takes about 1000 years to orbit our sun.
How is this planet named Farfar out?
=> Since this planet is far away from us, scientist Scott S. Sheppard jokingly named this planet Farfar out. But officially this planet is named 2018 AG 37. Although it was discovered in 2019, the planet was named 2018 AG 37.

How to find this planet?
=> When scientists Scott S. Sheppard, Chad Trujillo, David J. Tholen noticed something unusual in the Kuiper belt with 2018, they monitored the Kuiper belt with a Hawaii telescope and took some pictures of it. Although at this time they did not know about this planet. But in January 2019, these images were well analyzed, showing that an object is moving very slowly. Seeing that, scientists started looking for that object. As a result, in February 2019, our solar system finds another planet.
And again in February 2021, scientists Scott S. Sheppard, Chad Trujillo, David J. Tholen told everyone about this planet.
Although scientists have not yet placed it as a planet. But later scientists will get more information about this planet then maybe it could be our 9th planet.
