Pluto was considered a planet but now has been disqualified as a planet. it is now called a dwarf planet. it is present in the kuiper belt beyond the orbit of Uranus and the chances of finding a ninth planet has almost been ruled out as the planets discovered beyond the orbit of pluto are dwarf planets and are smaller than the one before them.
