    19. Pluto is no longer considered a planet, and is considered a dwarf planet because it has not “cleared the neighborhood around its orbit. This saying pretty much means that Pluto has gained control of the gravity around it. So astronomers made a name for these planets known as the dwarf planets, to show that it is a planet that continues to orbit the sun, but it hasn’t cleared the neighborhood. 20.…

    Atmosphere: The atmosphere of Pluto is complex in many ways. It is made of nitrogen with very small amounts of methane and carbon monoxide, which are all vaporized from ice on Pluto's surface. When Pluto is closer to the Sun in its orbit the Sun heats up the ice on PLuto and releases nitrogen, methane and carbon monoxide on Pluto's surface. These ice vaporizes and forms a temporary atmosphere. When Pluto moves farther from the Sun the atmosphere freezes and goes back onto Pluto's surface.…

    Astronomers from the International Astronomical Union (IAU), an organization that functions as an international consensus marker in astronomy, were assigned the task of voting on the definition of planets. Some have criticized that this discussion amongst scientists was not without political and non-scientific emotions or nostalgia. One rendition of the definition would have kept Pluto as a planet and included Eris and Ceres, boosting the number of planets to twelve. Still another recommendation kept the total planets at nine, keeping Pluto and the other recognized planets, but without providing scientific logic behind it. And finally, the third proposition, which would remove Pluto as a planet, dropping the number down to eight.…

Most famously, Pluto was demoted to “dwarf planet” status in 2006. Bigger shifts in our understanding of the planetary population, however, actually began a decade earlier:…
