Clear photos of Pluto are starting to come into NASA. I am enjoying NASA explaining that "ice" only means "lots of frozen stuff". To a scientist, ice is not limited to water.
My physics teacher was very exited about Pluto. He went on and on about how the math of orbits proved the existence of Pluto before Pluto was found in 1930.
And, of course, Pluto is the name of Mickey's dog.
So Pluto was always my favorite planet.
Until it was demoted to an asteroid or something horrible like that. How DARE those scientists take away MY FAVORITE PLANET?
I must not have been the only person upset about the demotion of Pluto. Because now Pluto has been promoted to being a "dwarf planet".
Best of all, the exploring camera that is photographing Pluto, may have 20 more years of life.
We are a very lonely planet, floating in the vast universe.
When we finally leave the solar systems, we will salute Pluto as we go by.
