Pluto was declared not a planet because it didn't obey one of the three rules that i needed to obey to be a planet. It had to clear its orbits, which Pluto didn't because of its minuscule size. Pluto is approximately the size of half the United States. Also Pluto wasn't the only Pluto floating around in our solar system, apparently there are other kuiper belt objects even bigger than Pluto that are not declared planets. If Pluto was a planet these other Pluto like objects would be too. I hope this helped you!
In 2006, the definition of a planet was changed. Three factors determine whether an object orbiting the sun is a planet:
Pluto meets the first two of these requirements, but not the third. Pluto shares its orbit with many asteroids. Pluto is instead a "dwarf planet".
Pluto is also the only one of the original nine "planets" that does not have a circular orbit. Rather, it orbits the sun in an elliptical pattern.
Pluto is still where it always used to be but it doesn't stand as a planet but a dwarf planet
Pluto is still there in space but now everyone has decided to classify it as a dwarf planet because it is unlike any of the other planets in so many ways
Scientists thought Pluto was oddly shaped ( like a potato ) And didnt think that it should be counted as a planet. So... Pluto is still there, but we dont count it as a planet.
There is a meteor hit Pluto.
It was reclassified as a dwarf planet.

Yes because Pluto is no longer in our solar system and the planets after Pluto are not in our solar system
No. Pluto orbits in our solar system.
Pluto is a member of the solar system because any object in the solar system is a member of the solar system. However, if you were asking if Pluto is a planet in the solar system then the answer is no. Pluto used to be a planet but is now considered a dwarf planet.
Pluto is still in the solar system. They just changed its category from "planet" to "dwarf planet."
Planet Pluto is in solar system and Solar system is in the Universe t, hence Pluto is also in our universe.However Pluto was not part of original Solar sytem but was a comet which was captured in a planetary orbit.

The sun is in front of the solar system and Pluto is at the far end of the Solar system.

Yes it does because Pluto is part of the plantes and they are part of the solar system it does not mean Pluto is the smallest planet it is not part of the solar system.
Pluto was known as the last planet of our solar system as from when Clyde Tombaugh discovered it
Pluto
No. Pluto is a dwarf planet of our solar system
Pluto was found to be a giant star, by some very smart Astrologists/Scientists. Pluto is not the 9th known planet of our solar system.
Pluto is about 5,913 million km from the sun (on average). Earth is about 150 million km from the sun. Earth is about 5,763 million km from Pluto.
