Poor pluto. |

Don't worry, Pluto is still going to be there in the sky. They can re-taxonomise it as much as they like, for all I care. We just need all the friends in the big gloomy space as we can get. |

i thought you were talking about the cartoon dog. lame. :mrgreen: |

Actually I think DuB is on to the main reason for this action. |

I have a real problem with making assumptions when I scroll by topic titles. |

Last I heard they did decide Pluto would be a planet but yeah, now so are three other planets. |

Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. That's not fair. I still have my Magic Schoolbus Space Computer game from a long time ago and Pluto was an awsome planet to go on because of the little gravity! |

Isn't it politically incorrect to call small planets dwarfs? |

Apparently there's a fair amount of backlash about this decison for two main reasons: first, only a small portion of the IAU astronomers were actually present to vote on the planet redefintion proposal; and second, the definition, as has been pointed out earlier in this thread, is sloppy. |

I don't know why it really matters. Pluto is still going to be up there in space whether we call it a planet or a pineapple. Like one fellow said in the article, it was pretty much fine as it was. Having a good definition for a "planet" also helps if you're going to go category-crazy. Apparently they don't. They asked for that. |

no panic guys! |
