The International Astronomical Union has redefined the term "planet" to "A planet is a celestial body that (a) has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and (b) is in orbit around a star, and is neither a star nor a satellite of a planet."

This means there are three new planets, and twelve more up for consideration.  This is important to me.  I am interested in the stupidest shit.
