Guys, if we all pressure scientists to put Pluto back into the Solar System.................

Arghhhh, this sucks! Pluto was my favorite planet until now!

No, Ceres and Xena are dwarf planets, just like Pluto.

Awww... that MSB episode is one of the only ones I remember. And the climax was when Arnold freezes his head on Pluto. My cheap old school will NEVER make the necessary changes to educate the little third graders about this. Well it doesn't matter... someday there will be a massive world war and every continent's inhabitants will have to build an artificial planet like a death star to escape from the sun's sucking-up of Earth. Then the death stars will have to blow all the others to tiny bits.

It would be awesome to see Hoth and Dagobah in our solar system. :P

Well there were thoughts of Pluto being a moon floating independently. It can be a moon of Neptune as the orbital path for Pluto crosses with Neptune.

So I guess it won't be a planet anymore because i think that they might eventually hit each other. Neptune is a lot larger, and Pluto is more fragile because of the cold. Pluto might not disenergrate, but several hits in many centuries will eventually kill Pluto.

Pluto can NOT be a moon, because it orbits the Sun, not Neptune.

Well I meant something about the orbital Path crossing Neptune.

At first, many people thought it was a moon, but it orbited the sun just like a planet, so it was considered one.

Well, either way, the orbiting path of Pluto never touches Neptune's, so it's not likely at all that they'd hit. The only reason Pluto was sometimes closer to the sun than Neptune was due to the tilted orbit. The tilted orbiting path does not meet at all with Neptune's normal path. They probably would've hit each other by now if what you said was true (and seeing as Neptune doesn't have a solid surface, Pluto would go underneath the surface of Neptune, rather than the two planets colliding).

Now all the science textbooks are outdated.

This sucks. I've been learning that there were 9 planets for 9 years. If Pluto goes, that makes Uranus sound much wierder a word than it already it.

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

It sounds like it's missing something.

You're right, Max! And all the worksheets that ask you to fill in the name of the planets are outdated, too.

Just remember your favorite cars/ car companies and you know the planets!

Mercury, Volkswagen, Edsel, Metropolitan, Jaguar, Saturn, Uplander, Nash

God help us if scientists ever start worrying that their actions will mess up worksheets.
