The next step that I usually take when starting a problem definition is to create a glossary.
當開始問題定義時，我通常是做下一步，建立一個詞匯表。

But part of the problem with the definition - I mean, as an example - is that if you look at Mars - if Mars - if we discovered a Mars-sized object out beyond the orbit of Pluto, it couldn't be a planet, because over the age of the solar system it wouldn't have time to clear its orbit.
