NOVA: Pluto Files Book

In August 2006, the International Astronomical Union voted Pluto out of the planethood. Pluto is entrenched in our cultural, patriotic view of the cosmos, and Neil deGrasse Tyson is on a quest to discover why in his book THE PLUTO FILES. In his typically witty way, Tyson explores the history of planet classification and America's obsession with the "planet" that's recently been judged a dwarf.
