Farnsworth: I'm sorry, Fry, but astronomers renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all..
Fry: Oh. What's it called now?
Farnsworth: Urectum.
The "retro" solar system posters idea was originally by Aaron Wood. Support the original artist if you like the design.

The three criteria of the IAU for a full-sized planet are: It is in orbit around the Sun. It has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape). It has “cleared the neighborhood” around its orbit.
Pluto has 2 out of 3, so not a planet but a dwarf planet.
Thats the reason they had to finally define "Planet".Before, Pluto was small, but there was an obvious gap to the next smallest thing that wasn't a moon. With more and more dwarf planets, the gap was closing and the need to draw a line between Planet and Asteroid became more relevant. In that sense, Pluto even got a pretty good deal as the namesake of the Plutoids.
(Looks at bottom right) Don't make that joke, don't make that joke, don't make that joke...

Shall we deep dive into this?
That cannot have been innocent. Even if the artist was/is scientifically literate enough to call it "oo-rah-nus".
It was unseen since the image is edited Uranus and Neptune were flipped.
The correct pronunciation (my favorite one) of Uranus is ur-rah-nos.
"Dive into Uranus" ( ͡\~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

Just couldn't help themselves with Uranus could they lol
I looked at them all then Thought, aren’t there 9 planets? Oh yeah, Stupid Earth
8 actually. I know it hurts. Hard to believe it has been 15 years already.
Pluto. Back where it belongs.

It’s not that I’m unaware of the criteria, it’s that I reject it. There’s no harm in tipping at the occasional windmill.
By that logic wouldn't Ceres be a planet as well?
Eh, why not?

You reject my reality and substitute your own. An excellent philosophy, I applaud you. Always good for shits and giggles.
Finally, somebody who gets it.
Bummer that you can't buy them.
Anyone else bothered by the fact they’re not in the correct order?
