Pluto is not a Planet anymore.
Explanation:
According to the new definition of a planet, Pluto fails on keeping its own orbit clean from debris (it should have collected that).
Besides:
- Pluto is small, very small, especially as compared to Jupiter, Saturn,Uranus and Neptune.
- Pluto is not a gas-planet (as the ones mentioned)
- It has an orbit that is both very eccentric, and tilts 17 degrees to
the orbit of all other planets.
