I don't care what the scientists say! To me Pluto was always a planet of a Solar System & it would remain a planet forever.

So it's classed as a Dwarf Planet now I think - so in my eyes, it's still a planet then. Bit rude to discriminate on size lol

there are plenty of dumb ass space junk of about the same size as pluto, it's not special

^What about Mercury then? It is very small in size yet everybody still call it a planet. I think there's a big difference between a planet and a natural satellite, no matter how small they are.

^Mercury is still over twice as big as Pluto, I believe.

If Pluto was to still be a planet, what would that make Eris? Or Makemake? Haumea? How many planets would we have to keep adding to the Solar System as new bodies keep being discovered? There has to be a cut-off point somewhere.

I'm not an expert at these things, but if they classify it as a dwarf planet, then its a dwarf planet. We changed the definition of planet. We could contest the definition again, it's still considered controversial I guess. That is the amazing part of language, it can change.

It's considered a dwarf planet by scientists, so I just go with that. Besides, as ArcticWolf said, there has to be a point where something can't be called a planet, otherwise it just makes things difficult. Anyway, who cares if it's a 'dwarf planet'... does it even matter that it was changed? Worry about more important shit... priorities ffs.

^What can be more important than this?!

Nope, there's too many factors that say that it's not.

I'm not going to claim to be more of an expert than the people who literally get paid to study space shit and I also don't really care. "Planet" is an arbitrary word created by humans to classify round space things so it doesn't really matter. Its like arguing whether or not chairs are the same thing as couches.
