Nope, not a planet anymore.

They claim it to be not a planet anymore, I'm not convinced....

Look at the size, and more importantly, the orbit of pluto.  You'll discover tens of thousands of other asteroids.  Pluto was discovered in the "age of ignorance", when we didn't know about the other asteroids.  And the "bible" was written 1,900 years before that.   Wink   Times change and people become better educated.

Lol on a sidenote of that
Kind of curious if the new Sailor moon remake will even let her appear lol

Also kind of neat that its still going through the news feeds lol

Most logic I've seen on it

Next July, the New Horizons spacecraft, launched in January 2006, will do the first flyby of Pluto, gathering unprecedented data and images of that distant world. The mission will travel a long distance but go a longer way, we hope, in settling the debate over whether it is a planet or something less.

it might be a planet, but it will never be a world

correct sir, I agree with you. no one in the universe is beautiful as earth, Smiley

And how would you know that??? Did you personally inspect the 6-8 billion 'habitable' planets our galaxy has? And did you do the same for the other 100+ billion galaxies??? ... what an utterly ignorant statement :p

That is my own opinion, if for you there is beautiful than earth it''s your own opinion I respect that.  Smiley

I know there are many beautiful in the universe but they are not beautiful as earth because there is only one earth.  Smiley

Define beautiful. How can be you are so sure. There are trillions of planet in the Milky Way galaxy alone and 8.8 billion of this planets are earth size habitable planets located in goldilocks zone. And there are 100 - 200 billion galaxy in the in this Universe.

Pluto has been listed as a planet "again" a few days ago.
Any credible source to substantiate what you just said .?
AFAIK its not a planet although they taught me it is then they said its not... and now if what you are saying is true I'll loose my faith in science too.

I'm not sure, effectively it boils down to how people view it. Everyone may have their own view of this. I don't think it is one anymore. It has been decided 8 years ago, and the recent debate doesn't change anything about this. We've found so many planets the same size (or even bigger!!!) than pluto that we now had like 15 or 20 planets in the solar system!

Why do we care anyways, we can call it however we want that wont change what it is, a giant rock

Earth is a giant rock.

My cock is a giant rock. About the same size of earth too.

Pluto's not a planet. \thread

If the Earth and your cock are of the relative same size and considered rocks, would that make you a Plutophile since being an expert in such cumparisons?  Grin

The IAU stated that Pluto is no longer classified as a planet; a few scientists opinions don't invalidate that. That is like David Beckham making his own rules in soccer vs what the official FIFA rules are.

Modern sense , no

Classic sense , yes

If it had not been discovered over 80 years ago and was discovered more recently it would not be classified a planet.

Several small rocks ....

But I like the 'classic' aspect of astronomy and feel it should be called a planet out of 'respect' for the work that lead to its discovery and other things.

Pluto is not a planet.  The definition of what a planet is changes with time as our understanding of the solar system evolves.  The sun and the moon used to be considered planets while the Earth was originally not considered a planet.  Asteroids were called planets when they were first discovered.  Many Pluto like objects are being discovered in the Kuiper belt and either the number of planets in the solar system needed to increase by dozens or Pluto had to be called something else.  I think the right decision was made.

Pluto straight up doesn't behave like all the other planets though.  The only argument for Pluto being made a planet is the "But I grew up with Pluto as a planet" sort of nostalgic bullshit argument. 
Like the other poster said, if you make Pluto a planet, then by that definition, you'd have to let a lot more other asteroids get planetary status.

If we make pluto a planet, we need to make another thousand asteroids a planet as well.  

Pluto is an excellent example of why you need to revisit old beliefs (i.e. a 2000 year old bible)
