Very interesting. Most of us weren't even born when Pluto was discovered in 1930. Pluto is automatically disqualified because its oblong orbit overlaps with Neptune's. Instead, it will be reclassified in a new category of "dwarf planets," similar to what long have been termed "minor planets." The definition also lays out a third class of lesser objects that orbit the sun — "small solar system bodies," a term that will apply to numerous asteroids, comets and other natural satellites. I am thinking- how many textbooks need to be updated due to this downsizing decision.

The decision on Pluto losing planet status at a conference of 2,500 astronomers from 75 countries was a dramatic shift from just a week ago, when the group's leaders floated a proposal that would have reaffirmed Pluto's planetary status and made planets of its largest moon and two other objects. http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/world/AP-Planet-Mutiny.html

Camo, I am no expert in this. But, i do remember purohit baje doing nawagraha puja. in the center is surya and around him/it are eight grahas i guess. So, including sun there are nine grahas in our solar system. This is just my logic. So ...i dont know.:)...gufai ta ho ni.

origin of astrology..interesting.. The origins of much of astrology that would later develop in Asia, Europe and the Middle East are found among the ancient Babylonians and their system of celestial omens that began to be compiled around the middle of the 2nd millennium BCE. This system of celestial omens later spread either directly or indirectly through the Babylonians to other areas such as India, China and Greece where it merged with pre-existing indigenous forms of astrology. This Babylonian astrology came to Greece initially as early as the middle of the 4th century BCE, and then around the late 2nd or early 1st century BCE after the Alexandrian conquests, this Babylonian astrology was mixed with the Egyptian tradition of Decanic astrology to create Horoscopic astrology. This new form of astrology, which appears to have originated in Alexandrian Egypt, quickly spread across the ancient world into Europe, the Middle East and India. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrology

Well...The astrology will never be affected even if there were some contributions by Pluto itself. Pluto is still there, where it was for centuries. All these guys have done is taken the pluto out of the Planet list. It will not change any effect of pluto on other planets, it will not change its path of rotation, magnetic effect, gravitational forces etc. So how will it affect the astrology. The only thing that will change is Text book. People will not read Pluto as a planet. Tyatti ta ho ni, haina ra??

That was a nice piece of humor by Mr. height! Our generatin has been taught that nine planets make a solar system. Hence,I still say you worth losing two points.:) Tyati belanai aath wota huncha bhaneyko bhaye po dus aauthyo. I bet will take time for people ,who have been taught Pluto as a ninth planet, not to consider Pluto as a part of the planetary system.

Well, its a fact that the way we explore science is much more intense than before. There are many instances when old theory has to revive due to the new understanding. For example, no body wanted to accept the origin of quantum mechanics to replace the classical newtonian mechanis, but also no body could stop it. But this instatce of Pluto is really deep into our thinking, it may be hard to explain a kid that, what he learnt till now was wrong and there are only 8 plantes. I would explain by saying that, before people misrcognized a big rock as a 9th planet, but there are thousands of such rocks, so it cannot be in the same category as other 8 plantes. A less name to memorize......
