Did The Planet Pluto Actually Explode, Or Is It Just Not Considered A Planet Anymore?

No, if a planet that was is our solar system exploded, it would be in the headlines. What was said is that it did not meet the criteria to be considered a planet. It's size was the factor that caused this. Now that we have better technology, it is easier to determine things like this.

yes it was reported on the News the following night that Pluto exploded.  But they were wrong.  It was a large rock floating behind Pluto that broke apart losing large chunks of ice making it appear as though Pluto has exploded.  The news is too quick to hype things up.

I remember the day vividly.  I was in agony from gall stones while being tortured in Coffs Harbour Hospital being taken for a junkie.  As I was screaming Pluto has exploded at 5pm to my torturers.  It wasn't seen by the Hobble until 9:30pm as it takes 4.5 hours for the light to reach here.

I now know that light is not the fastest.  But what was that?

I have been suffering severe PTSD since that fateful day.

No, Pluto did not explode. Scientists realised there were many "rocks" in space of a similar size, so it was either count them all as planets, or drop pluto...

I think that the planet was not there in our solar system... Peoplejust make rumours around.

No Pluto is a planet made of ice and seems incapable of exploding. And only turn to gas when it is closest to the sun. It can't have exploded.

Nope.. Pluto is one of our planets before. It just change up its axis of rotation and now becomes a moon of the nearest planet to Pluto, the Neptune.

Pluto now is only a moon ^^

No, Science has determined that Pluto is not a planet. They have reclassified it as a moon.

It did exploded!! It said on the new's. They said it's some kind of star.I know because my friend's and teacher said it exploded. I was surprized!! And remember It's not online.

Pluto didn‘t. Scientists have now declared that Pluto isn’t an actual planet, it's more of a moon because it‘s so small. I’ve basically repeated what Debossman has said :L Sorry. Lol.

No,it's not considered a planet anymore. Life is just not fair. It's been a planet since before we were born and a cute little one on top of that, like Disney's overgrown puppy with the same name. However Die4m3 is right. Bingo,gone!! It'll be a planet as long as I think of it that way. Did you hear the news? They think they found one farther away and now we still only have 9, because poor Pluto was demoted.

Yes pluto explode but pluto isn't a planet its like a moon

No. Pluto is a dwarf planet!!!!!ok!!!

I think so,at lease its what I heard

Pluto Dint Explode Because Its A Dwarf Planet And Its Not A Planet ITS a Moon!

If Pluto Actually Explode, Our Earth Would Have Extreme Weather Patterns.

No, not really it was merely dubbed too small to be an official planet.

No its not a planet and it looks like the sun

Yes it did blow up a rocket made it explode

No, scientist say its a dwarf planet because its smaller than most of the planets in the solar system.

Actually its not explode its very cold because of it moon and that pluto is becoming stone so pluto is not explode and its just very far away

That is odd. To my knowledge the powers that be just decided that Pluto didn't match their new criteria to be considered at planet any more. Can they really leave any thing alone? My grandson made a beautiful display of the solar system just prior to this. It's ridiculous that now all of a sudden, after all this time someone or someones make these decisions. Hey, just my opinion. Maytag

Ah yes the pluto explode and turn into moon thats why

No .it is a lot further then other planets

Pluto exploded because pluto is far away from the sun...

I'm not going to repeat what the others have said but Pluto is also known as a dwarf planet along with Ceres* .* solarsystem.nasa.gov I think this will help explain more about dwarf planets.

No, it wasn't destroyed because the bomb that they used would be floating in space and would't hit the planet.

Yes planet pluto did actually explode.I was pretty surprized and pretty sad but I heard some sciencest say its just a big rock so I felt better.

Yes. Some people say that this planet did not exploed but yet this planet did exploed. Some siencest say that Pluto was a big rock.
