This is not a very important point, but interesting I think. Pluto being stripped of its planetary status actually jives with Greco-Roman mythology. Hades/Pluto was the only significant god that was not an Olympian. Instead he dwelled in the darkness of the under world, ruler of his domain just as Pluto dwells in the darkness of the Kuiper belt, ruler of its domain.

[@Schutzstafell]

Rebecca98463 I think this coincidence proves the existence of the Roman Gods, just sayin

[@Hal2718]

Schutzstafell Heh

[@exilfromsanity]

Rebecca98463 Good catch! I'll remember that.

[@theq4602]

No eris rules the kuiper belt (its bigger than Pluto). But Pluto is the brightest object out there. Hence why it was discovered first. Also I think your forgetting about Poseidon and his kingdom of the sea and his descendants who ruled rivers and lakes.

[@Hal2718]

David Vermillion Yes, Eris does have more volume, but Pluto is more mass. I'm also not sure how what else you said is relevant to what I said. My comment was about significant gods, not minor or demi-gods. Pluto/Hades was the only significant god that wasn't an Olympian.

[@fleabaglane]

He makes learning entertaining

[@alexojideagu]

Litteraly nobody gave a shit about Pluto in Europe.

[@Hal2718]

Yea but it was a point of American pride since it was the only planet to have been discovered by an American. But what Americans are failing to realize is that an American still was the first to essentially discover as Neil would put, a whole new sloth of real estate. I personally don't care for that kind of nationalistic pride, but those who do, that's something to still be proud of.

[@DavidChipman]

Why is the volume going all over he place?

[@AALavdas]

It must be some silly auto-adjust setting, when the voice goes up, gain goes down. Really annoying

[@smileyeagle1021]

Interesting thought occurred while watching this. Dr. Tyson mentions that "dwarf galaxies" don't have an image problem, and that they actually outnumber the "normal galaxies". Okay, so here is a weird thought, if they are the more common ones, wouldn't they be the normal galaxies and we should have some different term to describe "normal" galaxies (ie, they are the normal galaxies and we are the giants)?

It is rather obvious that the California legislature, or at least the two that sponsored the legislation, were bored when they wrote that bill. It took, at most, an hour or two to write. It is also obviously a very tongue-in-cheek document. I wonder if it ever came up for a vote or was just read in session without being introduced.

[@MsCalandro]

It was responsibility of the Uruguayan astronomer, Gonzalo Tancredi (not Tyson) demote Pluto to "dwarf planet" category in the International Astronomical Union General Assembly in Prague, Tyson only support the idea but feels comfortable taking credit to himself. es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plut%C3%B3n_%28planeta_enano%29

[@dxhaFFer]

MsCalandro 18:07 He kinda says what happened. The Hayden Planetarium made the first public unofficial reclassification which made the first round of news, Gonzalo Tancredi et al made the official reclassification in 2006. There was never a confusion between the two events. I don't mean to downplay the contributions of Tancredi and his colleagues, but you make it sound like Tyson says the 'Resolution of the 2006 IAU General Assembly' was his idea, which he does not.

[@carultch]

[@wolfhound584]

I grew up learning that Pluto was the 9th planet, but unlike so many it was always my least favorite planet. I think its because as a kid I loved science and craved to learn more about it than fitting it into the school rhyme for remembering planet names and associating it with the dog. As a kid, I simply didn't like Pluto because it was boring. The only pictures were little white dots and you could fit everything we knew about it on a single page. It had a strange orbit and was way smaller than the other outer planets. It just didn't seem to "fit" as the same class of object as the other planets.

[@Ketofit62]

Why did they get all the lining in the queue

After watching the video I googled this: BILL NUMBER: HR 36 INTRODUCED BILL TEXT INTRODUCED BY Assembly Members Richman and Canciamilla (Coauthors: Assembly Members Aghazarian, Bass, Benoit, Berg, Bermudez, Blakeslee, Bogh, Calderon, Chan, Chavez, Cogdill, Cohn, Coto, Daucher, DeVore, Emmerson, Frommer, Garcia, Goldberg, Haynes, Jerome Horton, Shirley Horton, Houston, Huff, Karnette, Keene, Koretz, La Malfa, Laird, Leno, Lieber, Liu, Matthews, Maze, Mountjoy, Mullin, Nakanishi, Nation, Negrete McLeod, Niello, Parra, Plescia, Ridley-Thomas, Sharon Runner, Ruskin, Salinas, Strickland, Tran, Walters, Wolk, Wyland, and Yee) AUGUST 24, 2006 Relative to Pluto's planetary status. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST HOUSE OR SENATE RESOLUTIONS DO NOT CONTAIN A DIGEST WHEREAS, Recent astronomical discoveries, including Pluto's oblong orbit and the sighting of a slightly larger Kuiper Belt object, have led astronomers to question the planetary status of Pluto; and WHEREAS, The mean-spirited International Astronomical Union decided on August 24, 2006, to disrespect Pluto by stripping Pluto of its planetary status and reclassifying it as a lowly dwarf planet; and WHEREAS, Pluto was discovered in 1930 by an American, Clyde Tombaugh, at the Lowell Observatory in Arizona, and this discovery resulted in millions of Californians being taught that Pluto was the ninth planet in the solar system; and WHEREAS, Pluto, named after the Roman God of the underworld and affectionately sharing the name of California's most famous animated dog, has a special connection to California history and culture; and WHEREAS, Downgrading Pluto's status will cause psychological harm to some Californians who question their place in the universe and worry about the instability of universal constants; and WHEREAS, The deletion of Pluto as a planet renders millions of text books, museum displays, and children's refrigerator art projects obsolete, and represents a substantial unfunded mandate that must be paid by dwindling Proposition 98 education funds, thereby harming California's children and widening its budget deficits; and WHEREAS, The deletion of Pluto as a planet is a hasty, ill-considered scientific heresy similar to questioning the Copernican theory, drawing maps of a round world, and proving the existence of the time and space continuum; and WHEREAS, The downgrading of Pluto reduces the number of planets available for legislative leaders to hide redistricting legislation and other inconvenient political reform measures; and WHEREAS, The California Legislature, in the closing days of the 2005-06 session, has been considering few matters important to the future of California, and the status of Pluto takes precedence and is worthy of this body's immediate attention; now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, That the Assembly hereby condemns the International Astronomical Union's decision to strip Pluto of its planetary status for its tremendous impact on the people of California and the state's long term fiscal health; and be it further Resolved, That the Assembly Clerk shall send a copy of the resolution to the International Astronomical Union and to any Californian who, believing that his or her legislator is addressing the problems that threaten the future of the Golden State, requests a copy of the resolution. laughed so loud :))))

[@Gregvogel888]

How true!

[@raulchavez6419]

+studybug2010 Thats, in a way, science. Anyone can join, not only "brilliant minds", but you need two things: the passion to go forth into something, and the knowledge of the state of the art. Due to te limitations of the human mind, you cant learn everything, so each mind focus on an area and pushes that boundry whit all the minds that share that passion. The problem is: each day less and less ppl feel that passion or is lost on things like religion. This will make more difficult for you to find someone who shares a passion like yours and together push a new boundry in science.

typical scientists. always using "words" that have "clear definitions" to "describe" what they "observe" and "measure" and basing all their "knowledge" on "evidence" so they "understand" the "universe" and get their "facts" "right" even if they have to "change" what they used to "think" about it. (that "revisionist scientists" quote cracked me up. that IS the whole point of science, after all)

[@rianmacdonald9454]

@vincent james what's with the ''?'' - i thought that would be a very easy sentence to follow. Our future depends on the tech and scientific advancement, not 500 year old archaic belief in a BS notion of a moron god. Therefore unlimited funding for them to work on quantum mechanics problems, in the hope of solving nuclear fusion, and being able to produce basically unlimited power/electricity, clean free renewable. Our future depends of scientist working out these issue's, and they wont be able to when funding is messed around, reduced, removed, increased, reduced etc.

Pluto's route around the Sun is inclined 17 degrees to the ecliptic, so how the hell can anyone say it hasn't "cleared it orbit"?

[@frightenedsoul]

"...of orbital debris."

[@Hal2718]

What they essentially mean by that is that a body has to dominate its orbit in terms of mass which Pluto does not. It shares its orbit with thousands of other Kuiper belt objects.

The adopted paradigm of physics under which God cannot exist has been proved fundamentally incorrect through published scientific articles and openly challenged. Under the alternative paradigm of physics which emerges after rectifying the fallacies of the adopted paradigm existence of God is obvious & evident and above all is a pre-requisite for existence & creation of universe. Standing (till date) open challenge could be seen at World Science Database & General Science Journal in my profile.
