Why is Pluto no longer a planet? In August 2006 the International Astronomical Union (IAU) downgraded the status of Pluto to that of dwarf planet.. This means that from now on only the rocky worlds of the inner Solar System and the gas giants of the outer system will be designated as planets.
In August of that same year, the International Astronomical Union reclassified Pluto as a dwarf planet. But Stern has always disagreed with the IAU's decision. I don't know what to call this thing except a planet, Stern told CNN. New Horizons is now more than a million miles on the other side of Pluto.
