Sedna is the most distant object in the solar system and is about 8.3 billion miles away from the sun. It was named after a sea goddess in Inuit mythology. Sedna was first detected last March of 2004 when astronomers reported the discovery of a planetoid about 1,700 km (about 1,000 mil) in diameter.
