HEY MATE!
■While many people can point to a picture of Jupiter or Saturn and call it a "planet," the definition of this word is much more subtle and has changed over time. Many astronomers decided on a new definition in 2006 after the discovery of several worlds at the fringes of the solar system — a decision that remains controversial.
■The International Astronomical Union defined a planet as an object that:
orbits the sunhas sufficient mass to be round, or nearly roundis not a satellite (moon) of another objecthas removed debris and small objects from the area around its orbit
■The IAU also created a newer classification, "dwarf planet," which is an object that meets planetary criteria except that it has not cleared debris from its orbital neighborhood. This definition meant that Pluto — considered a planet at the time — was demoted and reclassified as a dwarf planet.
