phazan Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Your mom is a planet! But really, that's pretty cool, I always like big changes like this. I'm not sure why, but I do. But I do think it's dumb, I mean, is it really going to change anything? People are always going to call it a planet, although technicly it's not a planet.
DarkStitch626 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Ladies n gent's I give you Hubble image of Ceres!
funkybadger Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 For those of you who are upset b/c scientists have redefined the "planetary rules", just keep in mind that our knowledge changes and progresses. Remember, it used to be common knowledge that 1) Earth was at the center of the solar system, and 2) the Earth was also flat. Sounds idiotic now, but back then it made sense, and the scientists with new ideas were persecuted and accused of being crazy. Maybe if we all read more Douglas Adams, we may all learn a little more about the universe! It'll give all the dorks something to do besides rebuilding that Mos Eisley Cantina Lego set again!
WalrusMan Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 "If it has a moon it's a planet" Say goodbye to Mercury and Venus. And say hello to a few asteroids who have moons too.
coaster05 Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 So if I stick my ass out of my car window at somebody, does that make me a planet?
ParkTrips Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 lol I was at the Smithsonian A&S museum on Friday, and they had already removed all references to Pluto in the solar system room
Satoshi Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 "Hey Mickey! Somethin' bad 'round ya!" "On Pluto? Coz I heard it on a radio." "Pluto might get erased from a bio of stary world's planet, not ya dog." "What a sad thing!" "Yeah the solar system would lost one ya mean?" "Oh I'm startin' to feel I miss another Pluto." "Poor Pluto." pluto woulda got feel so down that he had a friend called pluto too.
Jumboshrmp Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 We've all been told a lie our whole lives that pluto was part of our solar system...Anyone know the old saying that helped us remember the planets "My very educated mother just served us nine pizza pies"? Umm.... why pizza pies? if you just said pies it would have been correct. Even back when pluto was a planet... there were never two p's at the end...
BarryH Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 At least Uranus is still a planet. Tee hee hee. I heard NASA is sending an unmanned spacecraft to explore Uranus. They will probe Uranus.
thomas2 Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Wow bad news, I always liked Pluto because we knew so little about it (which was basically better since it was still considered a planet then) Stupid space people!!!
FeelTheFORCE Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Damn you scientists who said pluto isnt a planet anymore!!! Now because of you I have to write a report on it.
Kroger8 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 if the thing has its own moon it should be a planet. Charon isn't really Pluto's moon, they revolve in and around each other, while a true moon orbits around a planet...
