    Overnight, Pluto has been stripped of its status as a planet when astronomers from around the world redefined it as a “dwarf planet”, leaving just eight major planets in the solar system.

    😈 With one vote all the toys and models of the solar system become instantly obsolete. I feel for all the teachers and publishers who now have to scramble to update textbooks and lessons used in classrooms for decades. What about trivial pursuit? You're buggered if you get that question about naming all the planets in our solar system.

    As one ten-year old put it, "Is this is what you get for naming a planet after a disney character?" - only an American kid could come up with that one 😳

    Whole thing a bit Mickey Mouse if you ask me 😆
