Hm. Fascinating. I guess things really don't last forever, not even planetary status. :|

This vote they had real ridiculous.

I feel is a damn conspiracy... change the definition of 'planet' to exclude pluto.... I feel George W Bush had veto power on that vote!!

Quote

Much-maligned Pluto doesn't make the grade under the new rules for a planet: "a celestial body that is in orbit around the sun, has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a ... nearly round shape, and has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit."

Pluto is automatically disqualified because its oblong orbit overlaps with Neptune's.

I read they had UNC-style factions and clashes over this....

but doh stuy it Pluto... we still love you...

so....they cant see it good so they makeup a set of mumbo jumbo about how it is. Have you all seen Journey to the Planets and Beyond? A BBC documentary about how it would be if astronauts and scientists explored the solar system to pluto using the current technology. VERY well done movie/documentary i recomend everyone get it. Took them 6 years i think to reach pluto and come back.

"My Very Eager Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas."

The letter at the beginning of each word stands for the first none planets in the solar system in order.

Mercury. Venus. Earth. Mars. Jupiter. Saturn. Uranus (lolz). Neputune. Pluto.

That's the mnenomic that children used in different english speaking parts of the world to remember the nine (former) classical planets. But now that pluto is gone...it's going to be very difficult to come up with something with some efficiency.

I don't know. Somehow to me... "My Very Enraged Madam Just Stabbed Up Nancy" doesn't seem nearly as kid friendly.

You sir, have my vote.

And it does make sense...as the late great Rick James said, "Cocaine is a hell of a drug."

Pluto is no longer a semi-major character on Disney. Due to Pluto's much smaller size than Goofy, and Goofy's orbit around Mickey cutting across that of Pluto...Goofy stayed a major star, and Pluto was downgraded to a mere pixel collection.

True, but Goofy had to hang with Sora for Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2. Pluto, on the other hand, got to chill with Kairi. Who had the better of it?
