Question about Pluto?

Question

Is the only reason that you removed Pluto from the list is that it goes against the Big Bang?

Answer 1

haha! I think so....ooo that would make some evolutionist angry!

Answer 2

From the time of its discovery in 1930 until 2006, Pluto was considered the Solar System's ninth planet. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries however, many objects similar to Pluto were discovered in the outer solar system, most notably the trans-Neptunian object Eris which is slightly larger than Pluto. On August 24, 2006 the IAU defined the term "planet" for the first time. This definition excluded Pluto, which was then reclassified under the new category of dwarf planet along with Eris and Ceres. Pluto is also classified as the prototype of a family of trans-Neptunian objects. After the reclassification, Pluto was added to the list of minor planets and given the number 134340

Answer 3

What?!?!?! That's a new one! No, Pluto was demoted from it's planet status for the same reason that Ceres was demoted from its planet status back in the 1800s - it is too small, and there are lots of other things just like it in the same general area. For Ceres, it's the Asteroid Belt. For Pluto, its the Kuiper Belt.

The structure of our solar system has absolutely nothing to do with the big bang, by the way. The Big Bang happened 13.7 billion years ago, and our solar system was formed 4.5 billion years ago. Completely unrelated events.

Answer 4

Pluto goes against the Big Bang? Really. That's a new one. Please contact me and inform me of this new theory, lol.

Seriously, that theory is very laughable and I have seen no credable scientist suggest it.

Pluto is no longer a planet because it does not dominate it's region of the solar system.

Answer 5

Yeah they did.
