Pluto had a pretty nice run, but ultimately his end was inevitable. Thanks for the memories bro.

Pluto will ALWAYS be the 9th planet.

Back in school, Mike Brown did an oral report about a planet. No one cared to listen because everyone was excited about the upcoming prom. Mike Brown did not have a date so he was flabbergasted about the reception because he investedso much time on the report. He looked at all his classmates in the eye and he swore "All of ye who did not listen will know about this tiny planet! And that also goes for your children and your children's children!"

@FF8 Brown can't hold Tombaugh's jock strap.

What if the meaning of life was actually something quite simple, like all we're here to do is look after cats or something?

[Candurry]

@Karl113355 I think the meaning of life is to call people like you stupid for making dumb comments like that.

Pluto will always be a planet to me. It's my favourite planet. Do scientists expect me to pick some other planet as my favourite? Have you seen Uranus? That planet is a joke!

In the beginning there was darkness and then bang my Dick appeared boom boom... No offence...

I think the new definition of planet isn't a very good one though. Stars have a good classification system. Planets are still in desperate need of one.

Me I'd propose we define a planet as an object large enough to have a roughly spherical shape by force of it's own gravity. Which isn't perfect either, but would work much better. (And yes I know that would define many moons as planets, but that's a GOOD thing I think, they're similar objects after all.)

Interesting that they figure that the dark spots on pluto would be silicate rock. I'd figure they'd be carbon compounds instead.

Actually once the probe gets there in a few years I wonder who's right.
