Pluto is no more, relegated to a minor dwarf planet a mere Kuiper Belt Object.
This week the International Astronomical Union has done away with poor old cold Pluto.
I fondly remember sitting with dad on our deck as a child making scale model solar systems out of gum leaves. Part of a life long fascination with science that eventually lead me to university to study science with a view to becoming an astronomer.

Pluto is suffering some sever planet size envy right now.
When pluto gets wind of this, it's going to jump orbit and come for us. Hide your valuables.
wait. there are only 8 planets now? You mean the song we just taught my two year old nephew about planets is wrong? Is he damaged now? Oh good lord, this is catastrophic.
I hear that the Plutonians may lodge a formal protest soon.
