It had to lose its status or you'd have to memorize several more planets Isaac Send a noteboard - 15/06/2010 08:57:20 AM
It's not like it's 8 real planets and left out little pluto. There's Eris, Ceres, Huamea, Makemake, and ten more candidates currently known in our solar system. Like Ixion, Orcus, Sedna, Huya, Quaoar, and so on. So it was drop Pluto or add in those, because they've got the same qualifications as pluto has.

Down with particle-of-the-gaps thinking! Ghavrel - 15/06/2010 05:38:20 AM 496 Views

Lederman wanted to call it "the goddamn particle," but the publisher wouldn't let him. Dreaded Anomaly - 15/06/2010 06:26:56 AM 461 Views

"Giant radiating dyke swarms"?!!! Joel - 15/06/2010 05:57:11 PM 466 Views
Oh, yes, and it's often accompanied by Dickite Isaac - 15/06/2010 06:18:35 PM 448 Views
When giant radiating dike swarms get hot they produce dickite? Joel - 16/06/2010 12:35:53 AM 487 Views

Yet, when determining the measure for what a planet is, Pluto vanished from the list! Birdeye - 15/06/2010 07:14:28 AM 487 Views
right, but it's still out there in the same orbit with the same momentum and positioning moondog - 15/06/2010 08:45:43 AM 591 Views

I was disappointed they didn't make all the dwarf planets into planet planets. Darth_Katie - 16/06/2010 01:00:51 PM 487 Views
