Astronomers have discovered more than 100 new minor planets at the edge of the solar system. The study describes a new approach for finding similar types of objects and could assist in future searches for the hypothetical Planet Nine and other undiscovered planets. Researchers used DES data to detect thousands of supernovae and find patterns of cosmic structure that will reveal the nature of the mysterious dark energy.
