My name is Pluto, an ex-planet of the solar system.
I've been demoted to dwarf planet status,
so please listen.
I used to be the ninth planet in our solar system
but didn't meet the three criteria the IAU had written.
One, a planet must be in orbit around our Sun.
Two, has the mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium.
Three, it has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit.
And that is the reason that I am now a dwarf planet, son.
My name is Pluto, an ex-planet of the solar system.
I've been demoted to dwarf planet status so please listen.
I was discovered in 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh.
He worked as an astronomer from Lowell Observatory in Arizona.

It was either Caltech or a Spanish observatory.
My first nickname was Santa before the IAU named me.
In 2008, they changed me to dwarf status officially.
Yeah, I am oval.
It's because I rotate at a high speed.
One of our system's fastest rotating large objects, I be.
My name, Haumea, comes from the Hawaiian culture, you see.
It means goddess of childbirth and fertility.

I rotate the same speed as the Earth,
and I'm a natural source of light.
I'm the Moon.
My appearance is gray and white.
You only see one-half of my surface
whether it's day or night.
It's believe I was created 4.5 billion years ago.
When a Mars-sized body collided with Earth,
their debris formed me real slow.
Meteors, asteroids, and comets struck my surface
for a billion years due to the fact
that they don't burn up in my thin atmosphere.
If you wonder what a moon is, it's
a natural satellite, one that orbits a single planet.
The planet orbits a star so bright.
Scientific observations were first
made in 1610 by Galileo Galilei, the astronomer Italian.

ocean levels stay the same.
Then the Moon's gravitational pull
creates the tides that we see change.
238,900 miles from the Earth is the distance
measured when the first spaceship landed on my turf.
The reason you see one-half of my surface
all the time is because my rotation's
the same speed as the Earth taught in this rhyme.
It takes 27 Earth days for me to rotate once around.
There is no air on my surface so you won't hear any sound.
