Planets

[Salmaan]

Any comments on Pluto being relegated from the list of planets in the solar system?

Now how will students learn the planets?

I think they don't need to learn the planets, because everytime the scientists will keep on changing the definition of planets ( keep adding new planets or discarding planets).

May be a time will come when even the Earth will no longer be a planet.

Which is larger in size - Pluto, Mercury or Venus? Can anyone tell me in ascending order (starting from largets to smalles) ?

This didn't really surprise me, if you have read any recent, meaning the past 50 years, articles or research on astronomy, the growing belief was that Pluto didn't deserve the title of "planet".

See, now you can say...

Back in my day, Pluto was a planet... :eek:

[akulion]

infact there could be a story about how pluto used to be a planet before the aliens from planet jimbonanny came and destroyed it with their death star and the valiant janassaris (jedi knights) fought to defeat them

Pluto is a planet! And I even declared war on astronomers to prove it! That's why my avatar used to be a picture of a telescope with a line through it!

[Fishman]

Fortunately I memorised the planets at an early age, so I don't need any rhymes or acronyms to do it!

Pluto is now categorized as a 'dwarf' planet
