    “Pluto is not a planet”

    “What is it then?”

    “It’s a dwarf planet”

    “A dwarf what?”

    “Planet”

    “So it’s a planet”

      If we include Pluto, we will have 14 planets in our solar system, and I’m okay with that.
      In order of proximity to the sun, we have Ceres, Pluto, Huema, MakeMake, and Eris.

      Granted, there’s currently only 5 officially recognized, and the IAU says there may be more than 100 objects in our solar system that qualify that are yet to be discovered.
