For what it's worth I think it's a shame that Goofy, also being a dog, is viewed as sooo superior to Pluto....

Look at the way Pluto's getting the short end of the stick all over the place

:lmao: I loved how that guy's caption was "Disgraced Astrophysist"

so wait, scientists said Pluto might not be a planet, then they said we might have like 12 planets including Pluto, and now they're saying again that Pluto's not a planet? MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MINDS!!

if we get new planets we're naming them Zooropa, Zarlock-9, and Colbert (c'mon, a Hungarian bridge isn't enough)
 
It makes sense to classify Pluto as a "minor planet," instead of a "classical planet." It doesn't share any of the characteristics we'd expect out of a planet, and it's not in the business of science to cower to tradition or public opinion polls.

I think it was a good move on the part of science to reclassify Pluto and similar objects (note that I did not use the word "demote," because that's an absolutely silly term to use in this case).

Exactly. Things are constantly changing in the world of science. People have to accept this, even though it means losing a nostalgic part of one's education. Could you imagine the outrage if something similar to the Internet was around when it was proposed that light could exist as both a wave AND a particle?


"No way, I grew up learning that light was a wave, and that's that!"

"Wave theory FTW!"

"Screw de Broglie! Screw Einstein! How dare they change the laws of science on me?!1?!1 I'm going to start a petition against the idea that light can exist as a wave and a particle! We all know it can only exist as one and not the other!"

we're not seriously crying over this or anything...

Wasn't talking about this forum specifically. Someone started a petition on another forum to get Pluto re-classified as a planet. And I'm not entirely sure if he was joking. :huh:
