Scientists have declared that Pluto is one of the most interesting planets in the solar system due to its mass and round shape and orbit that is very elliptical in comparison to all the other planets, however why has it been demoted? Because a resolution in the IAU defines a planet as “an object in space that orbits the sun and all other objects orbiting the sun are dwarf planets” and another resolution names Pluto a dwarf planet, it has been in fact demoted. Pluto is exceptionally far from the sun compared to all other planets but satellites have been sent out to confirm that Pluto is indeed a planet.
