Astronomers have decided that Pluto does not meet the definition of a planet.
No, not all astronomers consider Pluto a planet. Pluto was reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union, leading to debate among scientists about its classification. Some astronomers argue that Pluto does not meet all the criteria to be considered a full planet.
No. Most follow the new IAU definition of a planet which excludes Pluto.
Pluto is too cold to be a planet Pluto is made completely out of ice
They don't. Charon is generally considered a moon of Pluto, however, since Charon and Pluto orbit a center of mass that is outside of Pluto some have suggested calling the Pluto-Charon system a binary or double planet.
well back of Pluto there is a planet but they are still learning about it.
Pluto has been the ninth planet in our solar system ever since it was discovered. However, as a small rocky planet with a very strange orbit, it doesn't really fit in with the rest of the gaseous outer planets. Pluto is much more similar to a group of objects called Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs), or asteroids. So, some astronomers don't think Pluto should be called a planet.The International Astronomical Union (IAU) gets to decide questions for astronomers around the world. They have been talking about Pluto's status, and what it should be called. Since Pluto is very important to a lot of people, the IAU isn't going to take away Pluto's status as a planet. They are talking about calling Pluto both a planet and a TNO, but Pluto still is and will be a planet!
Pluto was founded by ancient Greek astronomers thousands of years ago. So I'll go with Pluto the planet, despite it now being a dwarf planet.
According to the International Astronomical Union, Pluto is a dwarf planet.
Pluto is too small to be an actual planet and is, therefore, a dwarf planet. Astronomers cannot call every rock orbiting a star a planet, and so have removed Pluto's title as a planet.
