Astronomers struggle to explain properties of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) These are small, icy bodies that orbit the sun beyond the orbit of Neptune .

About 10% of all TNOs are "detached," meaning they have no orbital relationship with Neptune .

A few percent of these objects have very high orbital inclinations, like Sedna , that are known as "extreme".
