Maybe science doesn't make big news these days, but in case you didn't know...a team of astronomers from Cal Tec university discovered a newfound frozen world today beyond the 9 recognized planets of earth's solar system...biggest discovery since pluto!
It's about half Pluto's size, orbits the sun every288yrs, and it's 4 billion mls from the sun. The astronomers named it Quaoar. Just so you know.

They should really give it its proper name, which is Mardok/Marduk -- which is the name that the earliest recorded civilisation, the Sumerians, gave it.
Wait til they find that the planet is inhabited by the Anunaki; hopefully by then the Nazis in the USA (ie. the govt corporation) will have been overthrown, and we won't try to nuke Marduk.

The information regarding Marduk and the Anunaki is true. It's in their annals.
The Nazi Corporate Govt. is, of course, just conjecture.

They named the distant planet Quaoar, pronounced Kwah-o-ar, after an ancient American tribe.
