Lol, the dwarf planet thing is funny. Like, come-on Boomer, Do you really want to memorize like a dozen new planets? Does your inner childhood give a fuck about MakeMake? Do you have a parasocial relationship with Ceres?
At least with feathered dinos it was "changing" some weirdass preconceived notion of what a dino was supposed to be. How did that happen with Pluto? Nobody has a good grasp on the relative sizes of celestial bodies, not even astronomers. Lol damn, shut up.
Ceres is fun, because its the Pluto debate, just a few generations earlier. It was the first object found in the asteroi belt, before we knew about the asteroid belt, so it got billing as the 4th planet for a few decades. Then we started finding all it's neighbors, realized nobody wants to memorize +10,000 planets, and reclassified it as an asteroid rather than a planet.
It's now the innermost dwarf planet, and hopefully it'll get a lander mission soon.

Yeah my thoughts exactly. If Pluto is a planet then so is my girl Ceres.
Tell me more about Ceres
A little icy dwarf planet in between mars and Jupiter, IIRC. I could be wrong though lol.
