I'm a little surprised this hasn't come up already! Two CalTech astronomers have published evidence for the existence of a 9th planet (NOT a dwarf planet like Pluto or Sedna) based on the orbits of Kuiper belt objects. (This is similar to the way Neptune was found by noticing its effects on the orbits of other planets.) The new planet is expected to have a mass over 10x that of the earth and an orbital period of over 10,000 years. Some other scientists have been a bit more cautious that this might be a false alarm, so we'll see if someone can confirm the discovery by actually finding it on a telescope in the next decade or so.
