Welcome to the new Solar System!

Theyre debating whether pluto is a planet. I dont see the problem though. Is it a sphere? Yes. Does it revolve around the sun? Yes. PLANET.

If that's the rule, Charon shouldn't be a planet. Well it isn't and it shouldn't.

The tennis ball in my hand is a sphere and technically it's revolving around the sun. Is my tennis ball a planet?

No, because it's using the earth's atmosphere to do it, so technically its not revolving itself

I could go get a basketball and spin it on my finger, but that just wouldn't be the same.

It was reported on the 7th October 2002 that someone found a planet and they named it Quaoar. I just wondered if this was the Charon planet before they named it Charon or if this was a different planet altogether that they had found.
