The Solar System

Dwarf Planets

Pluto

The dwarf planet PlutoPluto is not a planet any more because it is so tiny. Next the IAU members gathered at the 2006 General Assembly agreed that a "planet" is defined as a celestial body that (a) is in orbit around the Sun, (b) has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and (c) has cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit. Pluto hasn't cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit that is why Pluto is not a planet.
