thanks for sharing!
Those are just the ones they've named so far. As I understand it, there is a list of about 40 more waiting to be named, and another 50 or so still waiting for confirmation of their discovery. One of the the offshoots of this whole Pluto discussion has been an expansion of our awareness of just how big our solar system is.
