acyually, yes, there is, there are asteroids, like Pluto
Pluto's not alone, there is a lot of other icy asteroids out there, Pluto just happens to be the largest, they thought it was a planet, but they were wrong the whoole time, the only reason Pluto was classified as a planet in the first place is because it was like a planet, it was round, but it's only round because it's a large asteroid, if they're heavy enough, they're round, if Pluto's a planet, then there's a million planets, Mercury Venus, Earth, Mars, 243Ida, noname noname noname noname noname noname noname, etc, it just goes on forever Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, neptune, Pluto, noname (just like Pluto) noname (just like Pluto) noname (just like Pluto) noname (just like Pluto), etc, it just goes on and on forever, imagine billions of planets in our solar system, say it out loud and tell me that doesn't sound just plain wrong!

Pluto orbited the Sun, and was believed to have enough mass to be considered a planet. Many years later, we realized we made a mistake and decided that Pluto did not have the size nor mass to be considered a planet (Hell, it isn't even a Gas Giant ala the other outer 4 planets). Another deciding factor is the fact that Pluto's orbit crosses into Neptune's and ends up getting closer to the Sun then Neptune. Does this orbit seem planetary to you?

I'll join the anti-pluto defense society. Pluto has always been a poser planet. It just doesn't fit in.
Oh, and next to go off the list would be Mercury, not Uranus. Uranus is SO a planet. Uranus is big, round, has gas, it even has a ring. That's right, there's a ring around Uranus.
So Jj, what do you propose? 11-12 planets? Or 8? Because 9 is right out.

I want to join the anti-pluto defense society also. Pluto's moon, chiron, is about as big as the planet itself. Chiron doesn't orbit Pluto, either--they both orbit a point withing the space between them. There has been discussion as to wether it should be a dual-planet system, but neither are round! A planet has to be round. I hate Pluto. I say we have 8 planets for good.

Pah Pluto itself can't even be bothered to join up here at GT Planet and fight its own corner.
Until I see a valid well reasoned argument, written by Pluto itself, as to why I should consider it to be a planet then it can stay in the second division.
It never writes, it never calls, it can't be bothered so why should we.
Put another one down for the anti-pluto defense society, pointless little (non-round) blob in space.

As a new member, and in no way an existing member under a pseudonym, I really don't think anyone will bother
Anyway...
Hello
My name is Airon, and I am a proud cross dresser. Wearing womens clothes makes me feel more comfortable, and to so I do it as often as I can.
I will wear any clothes, and my favourites are tank tops and miniskirts.
When my friends found out, they were fine with it.
Does anyone esle do this?
I must say, my feelings are hurt.
I was officially discovered back in 1930 (Earth year) by a very nice guy by the name of Clyde Tombaugh. A sweet little 11-year old girl by the name of Venetia Burney gave me my name.
I've been in the minds of generations of you humans. Each and every one of you grew up with the understanding that I was a planet in your solar system. This Earth of yours has now said you have only 8. I'm now a "dwarf" planet. A "dwarf" is a short, stocky humanoid creature. I'm not that at all. I don't have an argument that would be suitable for you humans. Your scientific studies have now ousted me from your minds and hearts. I'm a cold and icy planet, somewhere around -400 degrees fahrenheit. You all only make me feel colder. Well, Jjacks doesn't.
Despite your "scientific" studies, I'm a planet in your solar system. I've been around these parts before any of your parents parents parents parents x10 to the millionth power were even thought of. I'm bigger and so I win.
Stop being mean to me, I'm a planet for crying out loud.

No your not.....
.....wait I think something fishy is going on here.
Right unless I see a picture of you holding up an orange and a sign saying "I am Pluto and I'm not a real Planet" then not only will I not believe you are Pluto but you're going in the ludicrous claims thread as well.
