5A - An Autobiography of a Planet (2122)

An Autobiography of a Planet

      My name is Pluto, I am a celestial body.  When I was young, a massive explosion happened in the Universe and I was born.  My radius is 11883 km.  I am reddish brown and bigger than everyone reading this story.  I used to be famous with my eight friends who are all interesting and special in the Solar System.  As time passed, some scientists on my friend Earth, disqualified me.  They re-classified me as a dwarf planet.  I was sad about that.

      Now I live in the Kuiper belt of the famous Solar System in the Milky Way Galaxy.  I have some new friends named Ceres, Haumea, Makemake and Eris.  I am the oldest of all.  Sometimes, I wonder if I can go meet my old friends or die in another explosion.  I am a planet also known as ‘The Failed Planet’.  I hope this name leaves me so I can be one of the most important planets in the Solar System again.
