The recent discovery in astronomy, is that Pluto is no longer a planet. Because the mass of Pluto is far less than the mass of other planets in our solar system, they have decided to take the title "planet" away from Pluto. But because it is still much bigger than any meteor or astroide, they have decided to name it a sub-planet.

How many new solar system planets are there?
As of now, there are eight recognized planets in our solar system: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. However, there are ongoing studies and discoveries that may lead to the classification of additional dwarf planets beyond Pluto.
One of the discoveries that led to the modern view of the Solar System was that the BLANK of the planets were ellipses?
One of the discoveries that led to the modern view of the Solar System was that the orbits of the planets were ellipses. This was one of the key contributions from Johannes Kepler's laws of planetary motion, which replaced the earlier belief that planetary orbits were perfect circles.
How did solar cell technology help with scientific discoveries?
Solar cells provide power for many artificial satellites and unattended remote instrumentation where access to conventional power sources would not be possible. Data collected by these have contributed greatly to many recent scientific discoveries.
Is a galaxy part of your solar system?
No, it's the other way around; our solar system is a (very tiny!) part of our Galaxy. Our galaxy is many BILLIONS of stars, most of which probably have (or perhaps, once had) some sort of planetary or asteroid system in orbit around them. Scientists once thought that planetary systems like our solar system would be scarce. But recent discoveries have found planets circling many or most of the nearby stars.
There is a lot of talk about the recent discoveries in the Gliese 581 system. Can humans live in a red star system?
if we can find a habitable planet
What are the newest found planets in your solar system that are not dwarf planets?
As of October 2023, the most recent discoveries of non-dwarf planets in our solar system primarily involve the identification of large celestial bodies in the Kuiper Belt. While some potential candidates have been proposed, the most notable is "The Goblin" (2015 TG387), which is classified as a trans-Neptunian object but has not yet been officially designated as a planet. The search for new planets continues, particularly in the distant reaches of our solar system, but any discoveries are subject to ongoing research and confirmation.
What is recent science discoveries?
In 2013 scientist cloned human embryonic stem cells. They also sent a space craft to the edge of the solar wind.
Which is ninth planet of solar system?
There are only eight planets in the Solar System. The celestial body commonly referred to as the "ninth" planet in the Solar System is Pluto, which has been reclassified as a dwarf planet in recent years.
What are the new discoveries in space?
Some recent discoveries in space include the detection of gravitational waves, the identification of thousands of exoplanets outside our solar system, and the observation of a black hole at the center of the M87 galaxy. Scientists continue to make new discoveries through missions and observations using advanced technology.
How has astronomy improved our lives?
The study of astronomy over hundreds of years has brought greater understanding of our solar system and the universe as a whole. Early discoveries helped us understand how our solar system works and our place in it. Current research is revealing how our solar system and Earth were created. Future research may find habitable planets outside our solar system.
What is the most recent tool in measuring in solar system?
The James Webb Space Telescope is one of the most recent tools in measuring celestial bodies within the solar system. Scheduled for launch in 2021, this telescope will provide unprecedented insights into the composition, temperature, and structure of planets, moons, and other objects in our solar system.
