I understand that Pluto is smaller than the Moon. Perhaps the Moon should
be considered a planet. What would the Earth Moon combo be considered?

perhaps a very silly question...
a while ago, there was a move to downgrade
the status of Pluto - from "planet" to "minor body"
I was told today that it was now "definitive",
and astronomers no longer call it a planet
so, what *is* the current statue of Pluto ???
