PLUTO



In 1930, the planet Pluto was discovered.

When I was growing up, there were 9 planets in our solar system.

Mercury
Venus
Earth
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn 
Uranus
Neptune
Pluto

Recently, Pluto was declassified, or demoted, as a planet.
Mainly because there were asteroids bigger than Pluto.

New photos of Pluto

Doesn't the light marking on Pluto kind of look
like Mickey Mouse's dog, Pluto?

Hmmmmm.
Wonder what else is out there?
