Scientists say discovery would be ‘truly revolutionary for astronomy’

Schoolchildren may need a new mnemonic to remember the sequence of planets as astronomers now believe there may be at least two ‘new’ planets in our solar system.

The two planets – which may both be bigger than earth – could be orbiting in the furthest reaches of the solar system out past Pluto, which was demoted from the status of planet to a dwarf planet in 2006.
