In 2006 the IAU (International Astronomical Union) agreed a definition of "planet": # is in orbit around the Sun, # has sufficient mass so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and # has "cleared the neighbourhood" around its orbit. Pluto only passes the first two; so it was designated a minor planet. There was also the discovery of Eris, another minor planet, which is actually more massive than Pluto; there was a clear anomaly in Eris being a minor planet whilst a smaller body was a planet.
