WHY PLUTO IS NO LONGER A PLANET

http://www.universetoday.com/13573/why- ... -a-planet/
The people who say Pluto isn't a planet are racists.
I have accepted that Pluto is a dwarf planet, being that there are dozens of dwarf planets in the Solar System (Eris, Quoar, Sedna, etc.)

March 23, 2178 will be Pluto's first anniversary since it's discovery :p

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto

That's the way I memorized it as a child, and that's the way it is today.

Didn't you forget Jupiter? -- Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System. It is a giant planet with a mass one-thousandth that of the Sun, but two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter

By the way,that is a better picture of Pluto then it's name sake "ruler of the underworld" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluto_(mythology)

sorry to be nit picky,

cheers

The word occurs frequently in the Bible, and generally in a metaphorical sense. In ( Jeremiah 9:15 ; 23:15 ; Lamentations 3:15 Lamentations 3:19 ) wormwood is symbolical of bitter calamity and sorrow; unrighteous judges are said to "turn judgment to wormwood." ( Amos 5:7 ) The Orientals typified sorrows, cruelties and calamities of any kind by plants of a poisonous or bitter nature.

10 And the third angel sounded the trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, burning as it were a torch, and it fell on the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters:

11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood. And the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
Revelations 8:10-11

In the Ukrainian Language, Chernobyl means mugroot or wild wormwood. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-rel ... 3148/posts

The Chernobyl disaster (also referred to as Chernobyl or the Chernobyl accident) was a catastrophic nuclear accident that occurred on 26 April 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the town of Pripyat, in Ukraine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster
