10th planet has a moon too! (Shall we call it Gabrielle?)

Given that at least 2 asteroids, Eugenia and Ida, have moons, that’s going to make for an awful lot of planets.

Personally, I’d vote out Pluto. If you include it, I think for consistency you would have to include too many other objects. (I suspect we will eventually find even more Oort objects close to Pluto’s size). After all, Pluto has only been considered a planet for 75 years, which is a pretty short time compared to the history of astronomy.

Proof once again that Pluto is a Mickey Mouse planet.

Interesting bit: Mickey (1928) is older than the discovery of Pluto and the first appearance of the Disney character (1930). And yes, it is reported that the character got his name because of the discovery of the planet.
