How can that be given that the IAU has now defined the term planet, thus forcing Pluto out of planethood since it does not meet these new terms. It is now a "dwarf planet", right?
Of course, it can still be debated and even changed. But, I'd bet a Sundae it ain't ever coming back into the big-league fold.
