Strangelv says, "That would belong in Exoplatz, but we could probably set up the Lunarpedia and Marspedia mirrors easily enough with the same script"<br/>

So true. Honetsy and everything recognized.
Strangelv says, "know of any planet data sets that are public domain?  Admittedly, I have'nt looked yet and need to not spend too much time on that today. I need to get myself, chair, sign holders, and Yvotte Schick signs into someone's car to spend too much energy printing things again"<br/>
 
You say, "ok, will put that on the list"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "Actually, there's a lot more planets than just MVEMJSUNP"<br/>
 
You say, "actually P isn't a planet anymore, it got demoted"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "The press releases say it's a dwarf planet.  The text of the definition makes probabyl everything but Mercury a dwarf planet"<br/>
 
You say, "lol"<br/>
 
You say, "i thought they were clear enough that only a couple asteroids got promoted to dwarf planethood"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "Jupiter is absolutely a dwarf planet.  It has one of the least cleaned out orbits of all"<br/>
 
Rose/Miros blinks<br/>
 
You say, "i thought it cleared out its orbit and put the crud into orbit around itslef, so it doesn't count any more"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "There's an entire well-populated class of asteroids that occupy Jupiter's orbit"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "Got a name just for them"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "CAn't remember it off of the top of my head"<br/>
 
You say, "asteroids running like heck so jupiter doesn't catch them"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "Neputune absolutely is a dwarf planet -- if for no other reason than it hasn't cleared Pluto-Charon out of its orbit"<br/>
 
Rose/Miros is planning to past this into Category:Planet discussion<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "Earth has asteroids in its orbit"<br/>
 
You say, "give it another billion years, pluto and charon will both be moons of neptune"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "The provisional definition made a lot more sense"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "You could also easily have a system with more than one gas giant in the same orbit"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "That's a function of distance from teh star more than anything else"<br/>
 
You say, "or the second largest object in the solar system could be about 10 times as big and actually spontaneously light itself up"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "That's a different type of dwarf. 8)"<br/>
 
Strangelv says, "Do you mean the one that appears to be about a rlight year out orbiting in the opposite direction as everything else?"<br/>
 
You say, "no, the one with the red spot"<br/>
 
You say, "10x bigger would give it minor fusion"<br/>
 
You say, "if neptune needs to clear pluto-charon, doesn't that put pluto-charon in the class of objects named "run like heck or become satellites"?"<br/>
 
You say, "ok, you stopped answering, i'll paste now"
