Pluto should be reclassified as a planet, experts say
The reason Pluto lost its planet status is not valid, according to new
research from the University of Central Florida in Orlando. In 2006, the
International Astronomical Union (IAU), a global group of astronomy
experts, established a definition of a planet that required it to "clear"
its orbit, or in other words, be the largest gravitational force in its orbit.
[...]
Metzger, who is lead author on the study, reviewed scientific literature
from the past 200 years and found only one publication from 1802-
- that used the clearing-orbit requirement to classify planets, and it was
based on since-disproven reasoning.
"It's a sloppy definition, Metzger said of the IAU's definition. "They
didn't say what they meant by clearing their orbit. If you take that
literally, then there are no planets, because no planet clears its orbit."

Metzger said that the definition of a planet should be based on its
intrinsic properties, rather than ones that can change, such as the
dynamics of a planet's orbit. "Dynamics are not constant, they are
constantly changing." Metzger said. "So, they are not the fundamental
description of a body, they are just the occupation of a body at a
current era."
Instead, Metzger recommends classifying a planet based on if it is
large enough that its gravity allows it to become spherical in shape.
"And that's not just an arbitrary definition, Metzger said. "It turns out
this is an important milestone in the evolution of a planetary body,
because apparently when it happens, it initiates active geology in the
body."
