VIVA LA PLUTO, FUCK YOU!
larrykingsballs
Reading that hurt my brain
ProbablyNotWhatYouWantedToHearBut
People need to shut up about Pluto being a planet.
ltcwheatex
She’s so pretty! Look at those colors! She must have an ocean but it must be pretty damn cold! Maybe ice.
Phrozenfenix
She will always be a planet to me. I refuse to change that in my head after all these decades.
WarBearGrrrrrrr
Dude this happened in June, I know acceptance is hard but it’s back
Grimmrog
she? Pluto is named after amale god, so that dude screwed up a lot.
Hnetu
Amazing what a difference 14 years makes.
Hnetu
Wait. Shit. FUCK! 24. God I feel old.
ThatQuietlySmirking
You can thank Brian May of the rock band Queen for the crystal-clear picture on the right.
ThxForTheMemeOries
Se7enPr1me
Pluto is technically named after a male god, so why would Pluto be a she?
Rotsteinblock
did you know that pluto has 3 moons discovered, and the 3rd. one was named hydra officaly
AluminiumFalcon
Scientific definitions progress and change but people just can't fucking adapt. It's sad.

pluto isn't a female either,...so...
Solkanarmy
that's some serious flash if it was able to illuminate an entire planet (yes, I said it)
ghsdkgb
Pluto doesn't have to be a planet to be beautiful and fascinating
FirstThingThatCameToMind
its very hard for me to accept that pluto isnt a navy blue, thats how I remember it from all the kids books growing up
Blrp0
Everyone knows it's stony gray.
AlCoolAJ
For me it was always a deep purple and blue. #NotMyPluto

'Cause if you liked it, then you should have put a ring on it.

If you liked it, you would have put something inside its Roche limit

Dad, is that you?

Top comment for a reason!
NotAHugeSpider
- Saturn, probably
SoachTieTraveler
Dang, beat me to it
NotAHugeSpider
Uranus is funnier, but not sure everyone knows it has rings.
OutrageousHemmorhoid
Is that real or false colour? It look awesome!
Eniff
It's likely false color or some variation. Those colors might exist but be extremely muted to the naked eye.
eeeaaaaaaaaaaaaggggllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeee
Nah, still don't care and the doofus that discovered it is from my town's "rival" town 13 miles down the road. All I care about is Uranus
TisIChenoir
I didn't know Pluto stared in a japanese porn in 1994. That one kinky planetoid.
AmachiHitsugi
That's why they want to remove Pluto's status as a planet. Can't be having none of that in classrooms.
parasztarcal
But Sasha made it to classrooms after her career.
AmachiHitsugi
Pluto's "career" was supposedly 1994. So, same thing.

Japan has better images but pixelated them - as they do with all nudes
ILoveSpicyPeople
Awwww that’s sad and adorable.

Thanks I hate it!

That's true heartbreak right there...

If Pluto was still a planet, we'd have to introduce several other new "planets" to the solar system. It's much simpler to reclassify it.
ShowMeThemCatsFella
Like OPs mom
diphenhydraminehcl50mg
That's fine
FailedCrate
Pluto has allways been my favourite "planet" - still is. But I can understand why they brought in a new class of planetoids.
panzerkoing1
I for one welcome these 'new' planets.
AmActuallyACat
Ohana means family
superpaul79
Hundreds if not thousands.
Snickt
maybe even dozens...dozens!
wlfman
you say "more planets" like it's a bad thing...? bring em on, I want more planets!!
vikingvampireangel
Get out of here with your "facts" and so called "science based evidence" nerd! This generation only has to feel to know what's true.
JakeHawke
Older generations have more emotional attachment to the idea of Pluto being a planet than newer ones do.
Tamaril
err 28 im emotionally attached to pluto
ingen2
As have already been said, older generations have more emotional attachment to the idea of Pluto being a planet than newer ones do.
trippintherift
How did they get such a well lit picture of it ?
FreddyBarnsniffer
That is my exact thought. I’m betting they photoshopped
HoldingAccount
They just gave the original picture to CSI and they enhanced it.
iananimated
This is actually from a reflection off of a screw on a car's license plate.
penguinpab
It’s this thing called the Sun

By using a panchromatic high-magnification imager, consisting of a telescope with 8.2" aperture, focusing visible light onto a CCD.
Retromorphic
Or the satellite that wondered past a few years ago but w/e
AisforApple
Not a 'satellite', but yes, the system described is called LORRI and is aboard the New Horizons spacecraft. More Kuiper Belt pics in 2019

CitrusLimon
Never dismissed Pluto as a planet. Not that it matters if we play along with it being sentient, as it's a harsh mistress with a cold heart.
Gretchis
why not? is the moon a planet? because pluto is smaller than the moon...
CitrusLimon
The rules determining what a 'planet' is are based on so many factors that it becomes pointless. It's like:where does the Solar system end?>
CitrusLimon
With the current definition of a planet, Earth would cease to be a planet if two other Earths were in the same orbit, instead of all>
CitrusLimon
three being proclaimed planets. I.e: I don’t subscribe to that way of defining the difference between a planet and a minor planet.>
CitrusLimon
It’s a sphere that wanders/orbits the sun: planet. Pluto even rotates around its own axis. If we started defining planets prefixes>
anarchyrodeo
why is pluto so cold when the sun is so hot?
Justiceforbradswife
Solar panels are stealing all the heat of course
ScreaminPanda99
Cause she's bad bitch who don't need no sun
micmic00
Sun far, yo
mentallychallengeaccepted
Because pluto only see the sun at nightt

AcaelusThorne
They not close enough
CdnDecoy
completely unrelated... love the Night Angel books!
AcaelusThorne
My duuuuuude/chick! Your the first to comment about my name. I love you.
CdnDecoy
Thanks? I’ve read those books so often it’s really difficult to not comment on it lol
iamthisguy247
You lose planetary status and you’d be pretty cold too.
parasztarcal
I never HAD planetary status. Yet. Someone invite me out to a hambie
Isorikk
Why is space cold when it's a vacuum unable to be defined as having temperature at all? I think I got too serious with this one
vindik8or
A lot of the particles in outer space can be extremely hot (millions of degrees kelvin) but are so sparse that they can't warm anything.
tweakbz
Heat vs temperature
FaredArlee
Maybe its because rather than having temperature, it is Void of heat?
clawthewolf
Space is actually not really empty. There are still a couple hundred atoms per square meter.
Isorikk
I think you're overestimating the size of an atom
vindik8or
That'd be cubic meter. And it varies. The solar system has 5-10 million atoms/m3 while between galaxies it's less than 1 atom/m3.
clawthewolf
Ah yeah
