Pluto. Computer artwork of the dwarf planet Pluto. Pluto, which used to be a planet, was demoted to the status of dwarf planet in August 2006. A dwarf planet is defined as an object large enough to be spherical due to its gravity, and with an independent orbit around the sun (ie. not a satellite of a planet). A true planet has to dominate its orbit around the Sun. Pluto fails because it is one of many Kuiper Belt objects in the outer solar system. Pluto is composed of rock and ice and has many craters on its surface

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic beauty of Pluto, once considered a planet but now classified as a dwarf planet. The computer artwork showcases the spherical nature of this celestial body, formed by its own gravitational pull and orbiting independently around the Sun. Unlike true planets that dominate their orbits, Pluto is just one among many objects in the vast Kuiper Belt of our outer solar system. Composed of rock and ice, Pluto's surface is adorned with numerous craters, revealing its tumultuous history. This image offers a glimpse into the mysterious world that lies billions of miles away from us. Its mesmerizing sphere symbolizes both our fascination with distant realms and our evolving understanding of our cosmic neighborhood. As we delve deeper into planetary science and cosmology, photographs like these remind us how much there is left to explore beyond Earth's boundaries. They inspire awe and curiosity about what lies hidden within our solar system's farthest reaches. This remarkable artwork from Science Photo Library serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge about space and all its wonders. It invites us to contemplate not only Pluto's unique characteristics but also the broader implications it holds for our understanding of celestial bodies throughout the universe.
