Amuse on X Says, "Trump Should Make Pluto Great Again by Restoring That Planet's Designation as a Planet by Executive Order!"
(x.com)https://x.com/amuse/status/1923368949246202160Pluto was a planet, is a planet, and should once again be recognized as a planet. This is not sentimentality masquerading as science. It is a correction long overdue for a demotion steeped in procedural absurdity and definitional incoherence. The International Astronomical Union’s 2006 decision to strip Pluto of planetary status did not reflect a robust consensus of scientific reasoning but rather a last-minute procedural hijack, wherein a handful of astronomers rewrote the cosmos while most of their colleagues were already boarding planes home. In light of William Shatner's recent post on X calling on President Trump to issue an executive order restoring Pluto's planetary status, the case for executive action is now not only scientifically justified but politically urgent. President Trump should act. He should sign that order. It would be a moment of presidential leadership where reason, public interest, and scientific clarity converge.

Planet Pluto is in fact the primary member of a
multiple system that has at least six components, which makes it a very important inhabitant of the solar system indeed.
