But this number now stands at 8 after 2006 when Pluto was stripped of its rank! Pluto is now classified under a new category of celestial bodies – called Dwarf Planets. It shares this designation along with 4 others – Ceres, Haumea, Makemake, and Eris. Ceres is in the Asteroid belt between orbits of Mars and Jupiter, others are beyond the orbit of Pluto in the order named.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/9AB1B631-DA81-435E-9888-6FCE0A3A3A68/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
