oh my god back when I was in like 1st grade we did a play and I was cast as a scientist who ran on stage and announced very loudly (and very lispy) that PLUTO WASNT A PLANET ANYMORE!! so yes good memories
Honestly I think Pluto getting demoted was my earliest memory I can place. I came along with my Dad taking my sister to school, and he was telling us about it because the news broke that morning.
I was the pluto in my 1st grade play, and during final rehearsals my planet crown with pluto on it was taken away to represent it not being a part of solar system anymore. I felt sad :(
See, this is why nobody liked you in elementary school. You were always trying to learn some fucking bullshit that nobody cared about. This is why when you asked Jessica if she could be your girlfriend, she laughed at your face. This is why everyone laughed at you when your pants fell down and it revealed that big ass burn scar. You are at fault for your own failures.
If you think Pluto has a poor excuse for an orbit then you should check out Sedna: its orbit is 5x more eccentric than Pluto's and it take about 11,400 years to complete it just once.
@@NikodAnimations You mean 2015Tg87 Ans the furthest object from the sun is 2014fe72 it takes about 92,000 years to orbit the sun. And is 3050Au from the sun at aphelion..
I disagree. Pluto is definitely not a planet, but that doesn't mean it's not an uninteresting body or uncool. There are a ton of incredibly interesting properties about Pluto, even if it's just a somewhat common Kuiper belt dwarf planet. Gorgeous ice formations, its atmosphere, its moons, its geology.. Charon even gets covered in red debris on its Pluto-facing side from cryovolcanoes. Honestly, every aspect of Pluto- and every body in the solar system, is absolutely fascinating. You don't need to be a planet to be cool :)
Oh I agree. But that plays into OP's point: if Pluto spun like that, it could well be similarly-distorted. Because Pluto, like Haumea, is mostly frozen slush.
This is the best start to a channel I've ever seen, can't believe you made it to the top 0.5 percentile in just 2 months. Can't wait to see what you upload next.
About that orbit, have you seen Sedna’s? Also, Haumea *does* have enough gravity to pull itself into a sphere, it’s just spinning so fast that it’s being stretched into that shape.
That message at the end is too easy, give me something harder like darkening the image a lot so I have to take it into Photoshop and brighten it, and the words are actually put through some kind of cipher, while also being converted into hex code, which is actually a hex code of binary code, which represents an audio wav file of your voice saying the message, reversed, and sped up a lot. I think that might make it harder.
Rules don't matter? Okay then (I can't argue with you because anytime I see a person who doesn't care about rules/facts, it's impossible to change their mind)
IAU says Pluto is not a planet. It can be a planet in your heart, but it is forever classified as a dwarf planet and people will have to accept the new planet definition someday.
what i learn from solarball: Pluto is from the Kuiper belt and the reason why pluto was out of the kuiper belt cause of neptune's gravity but pluto had a moon like their size getting them out from neptune
The second rule says that it has to have enough gravity To keep its shape. So that doesn’t mean it has to be a sphere. Else earth isn’t a planet as well since it isn’t perfectly round
haumea actually does have enough gravity to form a sphere. it just spins so unbelievably fast for a planet that its equator bulges extremely, making it look very oblate
It should be noted that the IAU's new definition of what makes a planet is pretty dumb, for example anything that orbits a different star than our sun can't be a planet. A new new definition is needed for sure. Maybe that would include Pluto, but I doubt it.
haumea is considered a dwarf planet because it does have enough gravity to pull itself into a sphere but its incredibly low rotation period keeps it in an ellipsoidal shape.
One thing you failed to mention, is that plutos discovery was through unimaginable luck. It was nowhere near large enough to produced the observed effect on neptune, and as it turns out, thanks to Voyager 2 we found out neptunes mass was 0.5% less then previously calculated, which as it turns out is just enough of a difference to explain what we thought was another object pulling on it. So not only did the planet they were searching for not exist, and as such the flawed calculations were entirely pointless, but by through some divine stroke of luck, a speck of dust happened to be in the night sky at the time, which we would name pluto.
A fascinating what-if, is what if Eris had been seen when closer to Earth. Its orbit too is elliptic - but it was found returning from the FAR point (which had been reached 1977). Eris is also inherently brighter than Pluto, not having all those dark red tholins on its surface. Perihelion 37.7 AU was passed at 1699. The 13" astrograph was assembled at Flagstaff around 1930. But this sort of astrograph was not top-of-the-line; they could do that in 1887.
My view is that, in becoming a dwarf planet, Pluto went from the runt of the Outer Planets, to the king of the Dwarf Planets. We made it move to the kids table, but there it reigns supreme with is size, populous moon system, and being the most studied/photographed Kuiper belt object
@@nikivalx Well, just for starters, Haumea DOES have enough gravity to be a sphere, it just spins really fast so it looks misshapen. Look at Saturn, it spins fast, just not as fast as Haumea. Saturn is also flattened a bit. And Pluto is like, the coolest object ever. It's objectively awesome. It literally has an ocean of LIQUID WATER underneath the ice. It is geologically active. It's moon. Charon, has a deposit of organic molecules on it, called MORDOR.
I mean I understand the definition of a planet but you don’t have to bully Pluto and it doesn’t matter if Pluto’s mantle is made out of water you can drink it GOD GAVE YOU WATER AND YOU SHOULD RESPECT THAT
Also, Pluto has another neighbour in its orbit: Neptune. Even if the Kuiper Belt were to be farther away, Pluto would still be a dwarf planet because there's no way it can take on a gas giant 7880 times its mass.
Apparently some people can’t count to 10. Limiting the planets for convenience of memorization is ridiculous. Dwarf planets are planets, regardless of who can memorize them.
correction: haumea does have enough gravity to make itself a spheroid. there are objects smaller than haumea and are made of the same stuff that are spheres. the reason it has that weird shape is because of its ultra fast rotation. when the rotation is fast enough, it can elongate a planet like that. you ever notice how saturn seems slightly oblate? yeah, that’s why.
Pluto, a celestial body once proudly considered the ninth and farthest planet from the sun in our solar system, has undergone a remarkable journey of classification and reevaluation. Discovered by Clyde Tombaugh in 1930, Pluto was initially hailed as the smallest and most distant member of our planetary family. However, in 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) made a contentious decision that transformed Pluto's status, marking it as a "dwarf planet." This decision spurred debates and raised questions about the criteria we use to classify celestial bodies. The first mistake surrounding Pluto was its initial classification as the ninth planet. While Clyde Tombaugh's discovery was groundbreaking, the subsequent development of advanced observational techniques and technology allowed scientists to identify other small, icy bodies in the outer solar system. This led to a reevaluation of what constitutes a planet, eventually prompting the IAU to revisit and redefine the criteria for planetary status. A second mistake in understanding Pluto involves overlooking the evolving definition of a planet. The IAU established three criteria for an object to be considered a planet: it must orbit the sun, be spherical in shape, and clear its orbital neighborhood of other debris. Pluto met the first two criteria but fell short on the third, as its orbit overlaps with that of Neptune and it shares its orbital region with a multitude of other small objects in the Kuiper Belt. The third mistake arises from emotional attachments and cultural perceptions of Pluto as the ninth planet. The decision to reclassify Pluto stirred sentimental reactions, particularly from those who had grown up with the traditional nine-planet model. However, scientific classifications are not influenced by emotional connections, and decisions are based on evolving knowledge and understanding. Underestimating the significance of Pluto as a dwarf planet represents a fourth mistake. Despite losing its status as a full-fledged planet, Pluto remains a captivating and scientifically valuable celestial object. Its classification as a dwarf planet offers insights into the diversity of bodies in the Kuiper Belt and contributes to our understanding of the early solar system's formation and evolution. A fifth mistake involves the public's lack of awareness about the complexities of planetary classification. Many individuals still perceive Pluto as a planet, unaware of the nuanced scientific criteria used to define such celestial bodies. Bridging this gap between scientific understanding and public perception is essential for fostering a more informed and appreciative perspective. The sixth and final mistake lies in the controversy sparked by Pluto's reclassification. While some argued that Pluto's demotion was unjust, emphasizing its historical significance and the public's attachment to it as a planet, others supported the IAU's decision, contending that redefining the term "planet" was necessary for a more accurate representation of our solar system's complexity. In conclusion, the story of Pluto is riddled with mistakes and misconceptions, from its initial classification as the ninth planet to its subsequent redefinition as a dwarf planet. Understanding these mistakes involves acknowledging the evolving nature of scientific knowledge, the criteria for planetary classification, emotional attachments, public awareness, and the controversies that arise when scientific definitions challenge established perceptions. Pluto, though no longer officially a planet, continues to play a vital role in expanding our comprehension of the vast and dynamic solar system in which it resides.
I love this channel so much dude. These videos are amazing, and I'm so happy you made a video about space!! Congratulations with the 100k button! You've almost hit the 300K now! :D
Anton Petrov says that the reason Pluto cant clear the Kuiper Belt is because of the sheer distance between everything. Otherwise, it and Eris are by far the largest objects in the Kuiper Belt. But due to the distance, he says (and dont quote me on this), that even a larger planet like Earth or Jupiter couldnt do that. Now, I'm not saying that Pluto deserves planet status (though I am a firm Pluto stan). I'm just saying that your argument is a bit incorrect and invalid
Every planet shared its orbit with a bunch of smaller object it hasn't captured as moons. Earth hasn't cleared its neighborhood, it shares an orbit with 11,000 other objects. All dwarf planets are real planets. Yes, even Ceres. I don't have a problem with kids learning 30+ planets, after all, we learned 50 states and their capitals, they surely can learn 30+ planets.
Excellent response! We shouldn’t limit the number of planets for convenience. The data says dwarf planets are planets and people need to get used to that.
Pretty cool through, there's enough big circular rocks that we could actually land on, bit risky in an asteroid belt but hey maybe we'll mine them someday or something.

@@233jLook, I do not know what you are saying.
Anton Petrov says that the reason Pluto cant clear the Kuiper Belt is because of the sheer distance between everything. Otherwise, it and Eris are by far the largest objects in the Kuiper Belt. But due to the distance, he says (and dont quote me on this), that even a larger planet like Earth or Jupiter couldnt do that. Now, I'm not saying that Pluto deserves planet status (though I am a firm Pluto stan). I'm just saying that your argument is a bit incorrect and invalid
You’re right, Earth WOULDN’T clear Pluto’s orbit. That’s why it’s a bad definition. Pluto is a planet.
dont be sad pluto found its family with the dwarf planets
Not cool bro, stop bullying my boy Pluto :(
Pluto is an asteroid
The thing called dwarf planet:
This is why Pluto gets bullied 😢
Pluto WAS a planet, till these NERDS RUINED IT!!!

Did you watch the video?
C'mon it was already kicked out of the Planets Club. No need to kick a dead horse!
bros dissing a fucking asteroid
Saw some guy say poor Clyde, I’m sorry but the planet (rock) has got to feel worse than the guy right
Every planet shared its orbit with a bunch of smaller object it hasn't captured as moons. Earth hasn't cleared its neighborhood, it shares an orbit with 11,000 other objects.
All dwarf planets are real planets. Yes, even Ceres. I don't have a problem with kids learning 30+ planets, after all, we learned 50 states and their capitals, they surely can learn 30+ planets.
Excellent response! We shouldn’t limit the number of planets for convenience. The data says dwarf planets are planets and people need to get used to that.
Pretty cool through, there's enough big circular rocks that we could actually land on, bit risky in an asteroid belt but hey maybe we'll mine them someday or something.

haumea is an oval shape because it spins so fast, it has enough gravity to become a sphere.. its just that a day on haumea is 4h.. this happens on jupiter too
