Pluto has just been re-christened a planet, as per the Illinois State Senate. The planet has been "reestablished with full planetary status, and that March 13, 2009 be declared "Pluto Day" in ... Illinois in honor of the day of its discovery..."
This ruling comes contrary to the IAU's (International Astronomical Union) agreement on the definition of a planet, which left Pluto out in the cold, so to speak.
Pluto was discovered by Illinois native Clyde Tombaugh in 1930. The reasoning behind the resolution? "Pluto passes overhead through Illinois' night skies."
