What can you tell me about planet Pluto?

Answer by  sonicfoundation (2597)

First, Pluto is no longer considered to be a legitimate planet but has been demoted to a dwarf planet. This is because it is considerably smaller than the other planets and actually is smaller than some other orbiting bodies circling the sun. As it is so far away from the sun it is extremely cold and icy with little atmosphere.
