Only if you consider the other million objects similar to pluto in the region to be a planet. Pluto's smaller than our moon.

I hear it is called a dwarf planet, which literally has planet in the name, so it isnt really that difficult of a question to answer.

A little person is still a person, just littler.

No.

It's just one object among many in its orbit. Being a large TNO doesn't make it a planet, especially when Eris is arguably larger.

No, but that being said "dwarf planet" is a dumb terminology. They should've gone with planetoid or plutoid or mesoplanet or something like that.

No because it doesn't have an independent revolution around a star, which is one of the requirements.

The moon has more in common with Earth than Jupiter does. Doesn't mean it would be logical for our understanding of the solar system to classify it as the same and Jupiter as something different. People are aware that Jupiter is not earthlike despite sharing the "planet" classification.

To be honest, if anything "planet" itself is an archaic term, but it's one that is too engraved in our public consciousness to do away with.

The terrestrial worlds, gas giants, ice giants, and... ugh, dwarf planets have such a staggering degree of differences that trying to paint them into one (or two) boxes isn't really the most sensible thing to do. Not to mention that there are seemingly loads of other types of planets orbiting other stars that are wholly exotic to anything we have in the solar system.

I'm not sure why it's difficult to understand. Lots of things have names that indicate a familiar concept or relation without actually meaning they the same.

Makes them systems, if nothing else. They have associated objects that aren't locked in an orbit with a central body. They're subservient to the body that orbits said central mass.

Even as a kid I didn't think Pluto being a planet made much sense. You've got the four small inner terrestrial rocky planets, then the four gargantuan outer gas giant planets, then itty bitty little Pluto. The pattern didn't fit.

I mean, I accepted it as a planet because that's what I was taught growing up, but it always seemed unusual to me. Then when the IAU officially demoted to dwarf planet, I thought "hm, makes sense."
