Is Pluto a planet
It has been argued that in light of recent discoveries like Sedna and Xena, Pluto is not really of a planet but a Keiper Belt object. If you look at it's size there is no justifiaction for its status as a planet, in effect it has been grandfathered in.
However according to the AU they have no intention of revoking its status.
Is this right?
