Why Pluto Got KICKED Out of the Planet Club π#science #pluto #learning #shorts #fun #educationAdded:
That's Pluto being thrown out of planet club.
There's one rule Pluto did not follow and it was officially downgraded from a planet. Let's find out what that rule is. Pluto was discovered in 1930 and from that moment it was part of our solar family orbiting the Sun with the other planets.
Then in 2006, scientists set three strict rules for planets. They must orbit the Sun, be nearly round and must have cleared its orbit of other debris.
All the other planets aced it but Pluto, it just couldn't as it failed the last rule.
So even though Pluto isn't called a planet anymore, its story still orbits in our imagination reminding us how every discovery changes the way we see the universe.
