No. It fails the IAU's new definition of a planet: in the Solar System a planet is a celestial body that (1) is in orbit around the Sun, (2) has sufficient mass so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and (3) has "cleared the neighbourhood" around its orbit. There are no other objects whose status is in question.

Pluto is no longer considered a planet by the IAU (International Astronomy Union; http://www.iau.org)./ According to the criteria they set back in 2006, a planet must:

(1). Orbit a star. [Pluto makes the cut - it orbits the Sun.]

(2). It must be the largest object in its orbit. [Pluto may run into some problems here, seeing as it orbits in an asteroid belt.]

(3). It must have an orbital path clear of smaller objects. [Pluto does not meet this requirement. It orbits in the Kuiper Belt.]

Sorry, but Pluto can no longer be considered a planet - instead, it is considered a "dwarf planet."

Pluto is no longer called a planet. It has been demoted to a 'dwarf planet'. Several 100 scientists got together to formulate anew definition for 'planet' and that definition did not include Pluto. All of the other planets are ok and will not be reclassified.

no to all, pluto was just accidentally named a planet because we did not know how small it was when we named it a planet
