Pluto gets demoted
"Pluto is automatically disqualified because its oblong orbit overlaps with Neptune’s.
Instead, it will be reclassified in a new category of “dwarf planets,” similar to what long have been termed “minor planets.”
The definition also lays out a third class of lesser objects that orbit the sun - “small solar system bodies,” a term that will apply to numerous asteroids, comets and other natural satellites."
"There's been a galactic battle taking place the last week, as international astronomers debate whether Pluto, our tiniest planet, should be stripped of planetary status and downgraded to an asteroid - or even a chunk of space rubble...But in the last decade, chilly Pluto has been taking lots of scientific heat. Its reputation shrinks every year as astronomers discover it's even smaller than they had thought - only about the same size as our moon. Some scientists say we can't tolerate such a pipsqueak planet anymore and they've made Pluto the butt of more jokes than Uranus."
