Fun fact: It's been almost five years since the IAU (not NASA) reclassified Pluto.

Also, Sincerely.

Pluto CAN still be a planet. New Mexico and Illinois recognize it as such.

Also it's based in France...and well....FUCK THE FRENCH!

I'd just like to state that it isn't unscientific to call Pluto a planet. After all Geographers get along just fine with the 7 continents, oh wait Eurasia is a continent so that means that there are 6. Oh wait the Americas are only separated by an artificial canal that means there are 5. Oh wait Africa is to so does that mean there are 3. Is Australia an island or a continent? Is Greenland?

See why do we need to define planets in the first place? I mean it's not like scientists aren't going to know what they're talking about.

[–]nothas 1 point2 points ago

you're right, lets not classify anything. fuck it.

[–]cos1ne 0 points1 point ago

I'm just saying, I'm fine with Pluto being a KBO as long as it also gets to be a planet.

I mean ffs we have "terrestrial" or "rocky" planets and "gas giant" planets. We also have "dwarf planets" so I don't see why Pluto doesn't qualify as a planet. I mean if Mercury and Pluto switched orbits they'd swap planet status regardless of the measurable properties of the objects, and that to me doesn't seem like good science.

[–]arch_bishop 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You're forgetting that several of those measurable properties are based on the object's orbit.

Pluto's orbitally eccentricity and that fact that it doesn't fall in the same plane as the rest of the planets contribute a lot it being considered different from all the other object we define as planets.

Yup, and there is lot's of evidence as to why it shouldn't be classified as a planet. I like Neil D. Tyson's commentary on the whole issue

I'm sorry, but Uranus was renamed in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all. It's now known as Urectum.

Plutos size actually has nothing to do with its reclassification. It was primarily decided that Pluto to not be called a planet because of two reasons.

  1. It more closely resembled the KBO objects then the other planets.
  2. Its orbital path intercepted that of Neptune.

[–]Otterfan -1 points0 points ago

I find it fascinating that two people downvoted you. Plutophiles, you angry?

[–]shrapnel09 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Probably the lack of an apostrophe in an otherwise intelligent post is the reason it was downvoted.

Dear Pluto, that was before you started crossing paths with Neptune.

You want proof? Here are just a couple of the times this has been reposted:

http://www.reddit.com/r/space/comments/fj73r/plutos_thoughts_on_not_being_a_planet_anymore/

http://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/fhcml/dear_pluto_my_mom_disagrees_sincerely_nasa/

This was even reposted as recently as three hours ago:

And you know what? It wasn't funny in the first place, unless you're still in first grade.

And my reply has been reposted as a reply every single time. Looks like we found the orbit time for Reddit submissions, and it's about one month.
