August 25, 200619 yr Working Link: http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/space/08/2 ... index.html Pluto said "Screw you guys, I'm going home" :lol: :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
August 25, 200619 yr Thats alot of books that have to be reprinted :shock: Metal fans, check out my band!Still the King....
August 25, 200619 yr It's a real shame, Pluto will be missed. :cry: Looks like it might be replaced by Xena though, but I can't see many people taking Pluto off the solar system for a while.
August 25, 200619 yr Xena will be another subplanet. Where has Cedna gone? :( ^The most disturbing signature on Tip.it^Last.fm|HELLY KAYLA!|Oh the mehagurtz!|#Siencemakers"they care less about their spelling mistakes then I." - Lionheart"apinagez... let me
August 25, 200619 yr This is just stupid. Just keep the damn planet(err...floating ball of non-planetness) defined as an actual planet. I really wouldn't call it an era. It was more of a definitive time period during which dinstinctive characteristics were expressed in similar ways.
August 25, 200619 yr I heard that there may be 20 planets by the end of September...I don't know if it's true or not, it's just dumb, who cares if it's a planet or not? It's not like it affects us, as long as we know it's there. My Very Educated Mother Served Us Nine Pizzas INTO My Very Educated Mother Served Us Noodles?

August 25, 200619 yr This is just stupid. Just keep the damn planet(err...floating ball of non-planetness) defined as an actual planet. if they do that, they have to add if i recall correctly 17 more planets. so instead of having 9 like we did as of yesterday, we can have 8 or 26 (at least, could be more). they were wise and chose the 8 option. seems like they made a subcategory for pluto and those objects, which i didnt know they were going to do.
August 25, 200619 yr I can imagine myself in about 50 years time telling my grandchildren, "there was a time when Pluto was considered a planet". They'd be like " :shock: how stupid were you?!" SHH HUT YUH MUH. DERKHED.
August 25, 200619 yr It's about time they did it. I know it's been a problem for awhile because there have been other rocky 'things' out there that deserved planet status more than Pluto but weren't given it. I think the option was to make planets have a broader classification - that's where you were hearing the possibility of there being 20+ planets, but they decided to go the other direction and just declassified Pluto as a planet.
August 25, 200619 yr Dang! I need to go back to second grade and relearn the solar system. I probly still have a big purple dot titled 'pluto' in my somewhere :lol:

August 25, 200619 yr Primary school children all over the world will be bamboozled by the new rhymes to remember the planets, other than that, is there a real point? How will it change and alter research? "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo"

August 25, 200619 yr Astronermers arent useless. You have no idea how incredibly hard it is to study the universe. Things are always changing, and always will change. The technology is getting better, therefore old theories have to be thrown out. Every single text book is out of date, even the ones printed a year ago. Its a very difficult but exciting field of study. Lvl 80 construction. Dragon Drops: 11 (4 Chains, 2 Axes, 1 Med, 2 Skirts, 1 Legs, 1 2h) God Wars Drops: 4 Zamorakian Spears, 1 Godsword Shard 1
August 25, 200619 yr I never understood how it was difficult to remember the planets... I mean, hell, when I was in second grade, I knew all the plents, in order, what each of them looked like, their approximate distance relative from eachother, and a fact or two about each planet. I still do know these things. All it takes is looking at a map of the solar system for a few minutes and that should be it... Anywho, I guess that taking pluto off the planet list is ok. However, I'm sure that most of the population will still consider pluto to be a planet for the sake of ease and practicality despite this new change. Runescape Name: "unbug07"Expand your mind.
August 25, 200619 yr I had a really cool comic about this, but I can't post it due to the language used... oh well... Pluto'll always be a planet in my book :-w My Tip.It Times Articles (10 and counting) || The Varrock Library Author Index projectDo you dare to dream? - Part 19 added. || The Hospital (WIP) - New story!Necromagus looks like a viking ... with glasses.
August 25, 200619 yr When i was 8 years old, i made a story about Pluto planet at school :thumbsup: RSN - Ur Enemy, lvl 120 - Back in action!:)Oldest rsn: Obu86 lvl 100 :P ~Retired~ RS Since 2001
August 25, 200619 yr Serves him right! Who does he think he is, claiming he's the planet furthest from the Sun, before barging inside Neptune's orbit! Good riddance to bad planets. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.
August 25, 200619 yr If they had to change the whole damn system around and add a bunch more planets to qualify Pluto as one, why didn't they just NOT add those other planets? 'OMFG IF PLUTO FITS THE DESCRIPTION AS A PLANET THEN WE HAVE TO ADD OTHER ONES TO THE PLANET LIST!!!!11' No, they don't. I really wouldn't call it an era. It was more of a definitive time period during which dinstinctive characteristics were expressed in similar ways.
August 25, 200619 yr hahaha now all the school teachers will have to come up with new ryhmes to teach planets, i mean My Very Easy Method Just Speads Up Naming Planets would become My Very Easy Method Just Speads Up Naming hmm doesn't have the same ring too it... Sig by me....

Exactely. It's pretty odd though, I thoughr Pluto was far bigger than the other planet-candidates Bill Hicks[/url]":dhj2kan9]Since the one thing we can say about fundamental matter is, that it is vibrating. And since all vibrations are theoretically sound, then it is not unreasonable to suggest that the universe is music and should be perceived as such.
