Like why is it not included in solar system i don’t get it
In: 20
It is part of the solar system. But there is more in the solar system than just planets. There are also thousands of large asteroids, hundreds of thousands of comets.
And in the case of Pluto, several relatively small icy bodies, far out in the solar system. We decided that those things should not be called planets, but instead made the new designation “dwarf planet” for anything that fit that description closely, including Pluto.
