I like the moon idea. We have a world of brains and AI here to make it happen. There must be so much bubble gum duct tape and twine that NASA won't keep it going. The PARTS alone would be wonderful. It must be cheaper and safer.

One should remember that at the begining asteroids were also called planets when they were discovered in 19th centuary. The current definitions of objects in Solar (read it more general - in stellar) system is not compleate. The body evolutional history should also be taken into account. Main bodies of the Solar system make the main orbital plane, obviously, one close to the ecliptic plane defined by the planet Earth. However the small bodies do have diferent orbits with different incliations. The official 3rd point of IAU definition that planet has "cleared its orbit" is wrong. "Planet dominates its orbit" - it is correct. The definition of asteroid needs improvement, too. Without oficial definition, rocks smaller than ~1 m are considsred meteoroids rather than minor planets. The oficial definition does not exist. In tis case, from the smaler size, I propose to use the size definition 1 m to become oficial definition. Small debris, small rocks, dust etc. are not asteroids. Large debris can became a new asteroid itself. Generally for planets, their size (mass) itself does not matter. Note, Pluto size is ~70% of our Moon. Pluto is not big to dominate its orbit. Thus only big enough objects, like planets, can dominate their orbit. Big planets should be big enough in a stellar system that has ended its active formation phase. P.S. Pluto is not a big planet in any perspective.

It’s a planet idgaf

Could they not have just made a new classification of planet to include it? You have terrestrial planets, Jovian planets, just make one more category for Pluto and Sedna and voila Pluto gets its dignity back and we get media buzz on the 10th planet of the solar system

Pluto is a comet... it just needs to come a little closer to the sun to show off its tail.

Pineapple on pizza. Let's Go!!! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill!

I miss him terribly. Mr. Sagan, you will always hail in my life as the greatest Astronomer /Physicist to have ever lived. I am honored that you were here in my life time. Every time I hear "The Pale Blue Dot", I am brought to tears, because I have a comprehension of how important and special our little blue dot is. I so wish everyone could have such a realization. If so, then Humanity would finally breach the final hurtle of becoming ... human. Next to the Universe its self, you stood as my inspiration. May you be enjoying your afterlife, and enjoying the universe in unparalleled splendor.

Keep going. This channel is inspiring. In the RUclips world , it will gather many folks who are perhaps finding loves of life later than earlier. Life keeps changing as do interests. I know I love knowing about the universe, but am not into physics that help us really understand how this universe works, but the end game is amazing as I can hang on to the coattails of those who have figured out the hows and whys of this world floating around like a piece of dust in a endless infinite space that we will never understand in it’s entirety. Wow. Ok. Word salad over. Keep going keep going you guys. It’s always a positive experience watching these videos.

Surely it's too round not to be a planet?

Pineapple 🤮

I was not expecting Bill Nye at the end there 😂

Oh , that's a cheeeck... This is fantastic and hilarious! And by the way, pineapple is a planet.

Planet

I was NOT expecting to see Bill Nye pull up with a pineapple pizza

That’s like telling a little person that they’re not a person….

BILL BILL BILL BILL!! BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY!!!

It has a moon, therefor dominates its orbit

Also. Its smaller than the moon. The only reason it orbits the sun is cus theres nothing large enough near by for it orbit instead

Pluto is a planet, pineapple on pizza is great, and the DRESS WAS WHITE AND GOLD! 😡

We pay too much if there are professors with enough free time to complain about this.

The fact that bill nye just nonchalantly pops into the video and nobody noticed.

The only person who eats pineapple pizza and can convince me to eat it is Bill Nye

Based on the first two criteria, if pluto qualifies as a planet, so do several other bodies in the solar system.

I love the planetary society. But if you can't agree about Pinapple on Pizza? I quit..

Pluto isn't a planet and pineapple belongs at the bottom of the sea. There, I solved climate change.

There is no bad pizza…… there’s good pizza and then there’s better pizza No bad pizza 👍😎 🤔 I think all the debate over Pluto means we need to send a mission there. Send a probe with a robot.

Bill

If it'll hold the mass of 1000 aircraft carriers in orbit without going wonkie, it's a planet.

I am fine with Pluto being classified as a dwarf planet, but it should still be counted among the planets WITH the other dwarf planets!!!! We should teach about Ceres, Haumea, Makemake, and Eris too!! More planets, not less!

YES !!!!! PINEAPPLE!!!!

Jerry smith, everyone!

If it's spheroid it's a planet.

A whole lot of nonsense to keep people feeling small and insignificant.

bill nye jumpscare

I wonder how long it took for people to stop teaching that Ceres was a planet in the mid 1800s when it was reclassified.

She came down in a freaking bubble doug. You're gonna sit here and tell me that im wrong??

I mean it isn't really even about Pluto, it is about how we as humans want to collectively define and understand something. We make the rules kids.

BILL BILL BILL BILL Bill Nye the Pizza Guy alsopineappleonpizzaisperfectlyfine

Plutos not a planet it’s just a big asteroid in the asteroid belt, it’s also smaller than the moon.

That's Just a Human definition and We are not at the Center of the universe. I think Pluto is not just a Planet, but is a beautiful DOUBLE PLANET. Pluto and Charon are gravitationally locked to each other and their barycenter lies outside Pluto. We have also other interesting planets : Ceres, Haumea, Makemake, Eris, Sedna, Quaoar, Orcus, Varuna, gonggong, salacia and 2002 MS4 (Give it a name!) Ciao e complimenti from Italy, Diego Faletti

Jupiter also hasn't cleared its Orbit from astroids! 👀

Does this mean that Jupiter is also not a planet because the Trojan asteroids have not been cleared from, but share, it's orbit?

They could've pleased everyone by grandfathering it in.

It's big? It's smaller than our moon actually.

Pineapple belongs. End of debate.

I'll never care what people say, pluto will always be a planet to me

Pineapple on pizza is also a matter of perspective and I’m with Bill’s on this one. Hawaiian pizza gang 👊

Based on how many same size even bigger bodies there are in Pluto's neighborhood, we would have to name hundreds of 'planets'.
