Pluto, once considered the ninth planet in our solar system, lost its planetary status in 2006 when the International Astronomical Union redefined the criteria for classifying planets. Now categorized as a "dwarf planet," Pluto orbits the sun in the Kuiper Belt, a region beyond Neptune. Despite its reclassification, Pluto remains a fascinating object of study, with missions like New Horizons providing valuable insights into its composition and surface features. The decision to reclassify Pluto sparked debates among scientists and the public, highlighting the dynamic nature of our understanding of the cosmos.
