NASA scientist: ‘It’s bulls–t’ that Pluto isn’t a planet anymore

The project lead of “New Horizons” says Pluto is a planet - good enough for me.

Never understood how an astronomer could be an atheist.

No reason why a special exception cannot be made for Pluto.

I'd be surprised if many of the jackasses who voted Pluto off the list would not just as easily vote "climate change deniers" into prison or prison camps. I tell them, be fruitful and multiply -- but not in those exact words.
To Pluto -- And Far Beyond "To Pluto And Far Beyond" By David H. Levy, Parade, January 15, 2006 -- We don't have a dictionary definition yet that includes all the contingencies. In the wake of the new discovery, however, the International Astronomical Union has set up a group to develop a workable definition of planet. For our part, in consultation with several experienced planetary astronomers, Parade offers this definition: A planet is a body large enough that, when it formed, it condensed under its own gravity to be shaped like a sphere. It orbits a star directly and is not a moon of another planet.
