So this planet is COLD? yet it shows up in IRAS?
Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS)
Infrared is HEAT... IRAS searches for HOT items...

The image he shows is Orion
IRAS discovered a huge Nebula in Orion

Is it any wonder that everyone is so confused about this?
No one can get their facts straight Big Dipper and Orion's Belt are two of the best know constellations out there
