Yep. Scientists are now saying Pluto isn't a planet anymore. I mean really, years ago, it's a planet... and blah blah. Now I think they discovered another planet called "Sedna" or something. Maybe it replaces Pluto, who knows? They might change it again.

Because people are stupid and think Pluto isn't a planet...just a hunk of rock and ice. I'm seriously considering starting a campaign to get it back. If that doesn't work, I'll start one to get Earth removed from the solar system. After all, it's just a hunk of rock!

The rules to be a planet are now:
1. In orbit around a sun.
2. Not a sun itself (i.e. not part of a double star)
3. Big enough to sweep all the debris out of its orbit
Pluto fails test 3, and is demoted and is considered a "dwarf planet with icy body"

The scientists or whatever thought that Pluto didn't make the requirements of the definition of a planet. How lame, right?
Make the definition different, losers!
Lol, and no 'Miss Thang' it did not move out of the orbit.

Pluto is now considered a "Dwarf Planet" because it is so small and made basically out of ice.

We had Pluto put to sleep because he was the runt of the litter. Some planet indeed.

Since Pluto was named, there have been other similar objects spotted, and they're not planets, so Pluto got demoted.

It was decided that Pluto didn't have the characterstics of a planet.
