Take a right at Uranus, bypass Jupiter and it’s five moons…..then be careful not to hit Pluto! Personally, I still call it a planet……Kind of like that musician formerly known as Prince…..he was always still Prince.
In retrospect, it’s sort of silly everybody says “Pluto’s not a planet anymore” when the word “planet” is still right there in the term “dwarf planet.” It’d really be more accurate to simply say it was reclassed into a different kind of planet, but, you know…the average layman apparently doesn’t want to see it that way.

This one broke my heart when it was first published, on so many counts.

Poor Pluto was still a planet when I learned about it. Who knew it would be demoted to a dwarf planet?
