Yes, it still exists. The only thing that happened to it was it got renamed. It used to be called a planet, now it's a dwarf planet. Nothing about Pluto itself changed, just our word for it.
yes
No. Pluto is not a planet, at least not in the general sense of the word. The International Astronomical Union, the group who names objects in space, classified Pluto as a "dwarf planet" in 2006. Pluto orbits the sun in an elliptical orbit and actually travels inside the orbit of Neptune at times. Pluto is known to have 3 moons and when the "New Horizons" probe, which was launched by NASA in 2006, passes by Pluto in 2015 perhaps more will be known of this tiny distant world.
Pluto is still a part of our solar system, it has just been relegated to the less dignified category of "dwarf planet" instead of planet.
Yes. Nothing happened to Pluto itself. A new definition of a planet established by the International Astronomical Union simply does not include Pluto.
YES IT STILL EXISTS AS A DWARF PLANET (STATUS CHANGED IN 2006) FOLLOW THE LINK I PROVIDE TO FIND OUT MORE.
It is still in the same place, but Pluto is now considered a "dwarf planet".
So it is still somewhat a planet but a special case.
Yes, it is.
The only thing that has changed in regards to Pluto is it's designation: it is now considered to be a dwarfplanet.
If you mean the dwarf planet Pluto, it did exist, and still exists.
Pluto is here
Yes.
Pluto is still in the solar system. They just changed its category from "planet" to "dwarf planet."
Yes because Pluto is no longer in our solar system and the planets after Pluto are not in our solar system
Pluto can be located in the region of the kuiper belt objects (KBO's). It is still considered to be within the Solar System as the Sun's gravitational pull still has an influence on it.
No. Pluto orbits in our solar system.
Pluto is a member of the solar system because any object in the solar system is a member of the solar system. However, if you were asking if Pluto is a planet in the solar system then the answer is no. Pluto used to be a planet but is now considered a dwarf planet.

Nope :)
Pluto has not changed in any way. Our definition of a planet has changed. So, Pluto is no longer a planet, it is a minor planet of our solar system.

There are now only eight planets in the solar system. In 2006, in a controversial decision, Pluto was demoted to the status of a "dwarf planet."

Yes. Pluto may no longer be considered a major planet but it is still part of the Solar System! The Solar System includes the Sun, planets, dwarf planets (including Pluto), moons, asteroids, comets, centaurs, trans-Neptunian objects and interplanetary dust particles amongst other things: basically the Sun and everything that orbits around it. Pluto orbits the Sun, so it's still part of the Solar System.
yes, there is but scientists are still discovering it----
Out solar system has 8 planets:MercuryVenusEarthMarsJupiterSaturnUranusNeptuneIf you still want to count Pluto, it would be 9 planets.
