Re: Soon 12 planets in the solar system !


Davoud,

I agree with you. I've always wondered why there seems to be this
strong anti-pluto
"feeling". It makes no sense at all really.

Now, possibly, the thought has occurred to these gentlemen & ladies
that if they demoted Pluto the whole world might throw the proverbial
"book" at them because no one takes 76 years to finally agree on a
definition.

It's pretty ridiculous in and of itself.

I think the general public might just be able to stomach a few more
planets and say possibly a few more withing a few years as our
telescopes and technology get better and more precise.

Carl Sagan, come back...we need you now!:)
