Here is a new feature to this blog. I call it "Sad But True." In this section, I will post facts that are sad, weird, hard to believe and even outlandish but are also true. So, here we go!
Pluto did not get to make one full orbit around the Sun between its discovery as a planet and its demotion from planet to dwarf planet. It takes 248 years for it to orbit the Sun. Pluto was discovered on February 8, 1930 and it was demoted from full planet status to a dwarf planet on April 24, 2006. That is our first "weird but true" fact!
