Pluto is still a planet but it is now considered a dwarf planet. Pluto's re-categorization as a dwarf planet was voted upon by a panel from The International Astronomical Union, the governing body in charge of naming space objects.


Which Kuiper belt object has recently been stripped of its privileges as a planet?

None. There are no "priveleges as a planet" to be stripped. And an inanimate object wouldn't miss them anyway. Pluto was recently stripped of its title as a planet. But it didn't lose any priveleges because of it.

When did Pluto lose its classification as a proper planet?

IN 2006, the International Astronomical Union voted that a planet must meet three qualifications. 1. It must orbit the Sun, not another body. 2. It must be massive enough to have been crushed into a spherical shape by its own gravity. 3. It must have "cleared the vicinity of its orbit". Pluto meets the first two criteria, but because there are many other (possibly millions of other) bodies in the Kuiper Belt of assorted mass and debris beyond Neptune, Pluto has not "cleared its orbit" of other bodies. Like Ceres in the Asteroid Belt, Pluto was demoted to "dwarf planet" status. This third requirement is fairly controversial, as astronomy goes, and the next IAU convention may revise it.


Is there any chance that the earth could lose its gravity?
