I was flipping through a children's book on the 'updated' solar system the other day and felt kind of...incomplete.

I remember when Pluto was a planet and we all had a future!

Although Pluto was demoted as a planet it holds a higher honor: Plutonium. It is right there on the periodic table next to Neptunium. If people ever do spread out beyond the solar system Plutonium will still be element 94 .

When the Horizons probe zipped past Pluto do you know what its power source was? Plutonium!

Once considered a planet, scientists decided that that was just Goofy.

Very interesting article. But if it is a dwarf planet then it is a planet and shouldn’t they put it back as one?

Dont despair, its not over yet. There is a paper that has argued that “planet” has been misdefined by science for the last 60ish(?) years that has gained some supporters. If “planet” is redefined to the definition used by those writing the paper then we will have something like 126(?) planets in our solar system.
Wait until your fourth grader comes home with that planetary mobile project.

Thanks for pointing that out. I thought either an idiot at NASA had written this or someone at NASA thinks everyone else is an idiot.

“Clyde Tombaugh discovered Pluto in 1930”
I did a school report on him in 1970 when I was in I believe the 4th grade, I wish I still had it because I remember being fascinated by it. He actually made his own telescope, lenses and mirrors included.

Pluto is a PLANET.
IMHO, next to Earth is is the most beautiful PLANET in our Solar System.



See that? God made it. And America brought it to you.

I recommend reading “How I Killed Pluto and Why it had it coming” by Make Brown.
He was the guy that discovered the Kuiper Belt objects that made the downgrading of Pluto mandatory.

I don’t think Pluto gives a rip.
