At 3.7 billion miles from the Sun, the dark world of Pluto has remained a puzzle to scientists. Discovered less than one hundred years ago, new findings are …
These people should get their facts straight. Pluto goes within Neptune’s
orbit once, not twice, according to accurate models! This is the reason
that Pluto didn’t make the third qualification of being a planet. The
objects in the Kuiper Belt are so far apart from one another you’d think
the IAU would reevaluate Pluto’s status. As far as I’m concerned until New
Horizon’s arrives at Pluto in 2015, LONG LIVE PLUTO! 9th PLANET IN THE
SOLAR SYSTEM!?
New Horizons will reach Pluto in around April of 2015. I have my calendar
marked….I can’t wait to find out if Pluto is, in fact, a planet or dwarf
planet….?
Percival Lowell is NOT the discoverer of Pluto; Clyde Tombough is. He was
the young protege of Lowell, but still the discoverer because Lowell died
before 1930.
@DunneBroProductions Pluto did not clear its orbit of debris and thus is
not considered a planet. Jupiter Saturn Uranus and Neptune have a
rocky/metallic core and cleared their orbits of debris ( excl. Jupiter*).
They are one giant ball of gas 😛
If there is ice, then there is water. If there is water, there are
micro-organisms in it. Therefore, there are microbes at Antarctica, Pluto
and moons and rings of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
The definition of a Planet is a hypocrite as Neptunes Orbit has Pluto
coming into it then Neptune fails in the same way as Pluto to define Itself
as a Planet
That is really idiotic. I prefer the Metric system, but how can you expect
us to just start using the Metric system? We use it for science, but it
would cost tons of money to change systems.

mercury is almost as small as pluto shouldnt that make mercury be a dwarf
planet as well?

Pluto is no longer classified as a “planet”.?

Uranus is bigger than Pluto.?
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
Pluto is Ceres ?
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
nuh nuh mercuy is a ittle bigger then pulto?

common you got it all wrong pluto was named after micey mose dog lol
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
That’s weird! An 9 or 11 year old girl called to Pluto.
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
look pluto doesn’t care that it isn’t a planet it is a peice of rock it
amazes me how people get heated over mess like that
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
@Jip4head but also because of Jupiter and the Sun tug of war, we now have
an asteriod belt!! True Jupiter saved us from many comets
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
Mercery in Uranus. Get it?
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
Poor Pluto!
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
@Timeline15 I feel sorry for people like you.

@DunneBroProductions yea but pluto has a irregluar orbit
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
i just realised my balls are no planets….
June 10th, 2014 at 9:41 am
in my eyes & many Pluto is still a planet. But does it really Matter? when
studying Pluto how did they not Notice Eris?
