There is a debate raging as to what exactly constitutes a "planet" in the classical sense when applied to objects in the near-extrasolar region known as the Kuiper belt. Pluto is argued to be one such object. This then opens the door to argument in light of the near Pluto sized objects that have an orbit around the sun. Objects that do not strictly adhere to the plane of the rest of the planetary bodies, while maintaining a somewhat eccentric orbit around the G2 class star. So is it fish or fowl goes the debate. Given the volume of objects that fit this description in the region outside of Pluto's orbit, the oft fractious scientific community has seen head scratching, grandstanding and nose thumbing within their ranks. So if ABC adds to the din, the more the merrier I say!
