Alas, poor Pluto, I knew him...
Pluto has been de-planetized. Thursday the International Astronomical Union decided that Pluto, whom has been part of our 9-planet pantheon, is no longer one of our...um... 9-planet-pantheon...
Pluto -and its 3 moons- are now part of the classification called "dwarf planets" which fits in nicely with the L class star classification "Dwarf Stars".
It's going to play molly-hobb with all of our astronomical definitions, but that's what science is all about :D
Pluto, you stayed a planet for a long time... But you are a planet no more.
