Read this and thought it interesting. So Pluto has glaciers, possibly a warm core, and a relatively young swatch of land indicating a geologically active planet(oid). The best part is the spacecraft still has a bunch of data to send back and we'll be getting new pics until August.

Pluto is a TNO (trans-Neptunian object) according to the folks who define and classify heavenly bodies at the International Astronomical Union.

Well according to my 4th grade science project it's a planet and that's what it will stay as.

Emma Ideal is a member of the IAU. We'll let her decide.



(Spoiler Alert: TNO = Pluto)
