Geocache Description:

The Geolympix Solar System Series was inspired by a visit to Zürich in 2010, where I saw a 1:1bn scale solar system. GSS caches are hidden at scale distances from the 'sun'; the golden globe atop West Wycombe church.

Pluto is an 'ex-planet'. Downgraded to a Dwarf Planet in 2006, partly thanks to the discovery of Eris the year before, it was originally detected in 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh.

The given co-ords are for suggested parking only. The cache isn't there. to find it you will need to apply the co-ord corrections found in GSS09: Neptune. In turn, inside Pluto you'll find co-ord corrections for Eris.
