Perhaps due to the stress of facing world affairs during World War I, Lowell died of a stroke on November 12, 1916 at the age of 61. The Planet X that he predicted beyond Neptune was never found, but Pluto was discovered in 1930, followed by a string of similar small bodies (plutoids) on the far edges of the solar system.
