Pluto Is No Longer A Planet
The International Astronomical Union stripped Pluto of its planet status because it's too small.
Thursday, August 24, 2006
Pluto has been stripped of its planet status. The International Astronomical Union made the decision today at a meeting in Prague.
Pluto's been a planet since it was discovered in 1930. Astronomers say their new guidelines for a "classic planet" boots the furthest rock from the sun out. They say Pluto is too small -- smaller even than the Earth's moon -- and it has an eccentric orbit.
The change is expected to cost millions for schools who will need to get updated textbooks with the new eight planet solar system included.
