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.

this has always bothered me about particle physicists.... - 15/06/2010 05:32:26 AM 529 Views
Down with particle-of-the-gaps thinking! - 15/06/2010 05:38:20 AM 512 Views
Yeah, always been my problem, too. - 15/06/2010 05:44:30 AM 453 Views
Lederman wanted to call it "the goddamn particle," but the publisher wouldn't let him. - 15/06/2010 06:26:56 AM 477 Views

Yet, when determining the measure for what a planet is, Pluto vanished from the list! - 15/06/2010 07:14:28 AM 506 Views
right, but it's still out there in the same orbit with the same momentum and positioning - 15/06/2010 08:45:43 AM 606 Views
