Subject: New Kuiper Belt object named after Buffy

Someone named a new Kuiper Belt object after Buffy. The Kuiper Belt contains comet like objects and is outside the orbit of Pluto. "Buffy" is between 1/5 and 1/2 the size of Pluto and has a very strange orbit. Hense the name since its orbit may slay some astronomical theories.
