Why Is Pluto A Dwarf Planet?

For the past week me and a few friends have been working on a space project. We had to pick a question to research. Me and my group chose to research about why Pluto is a dwarf planet.

Here is our research

Pluto was downgraded to a dwarf planet in August 2006 by the International astronomical union because
 it didn’t meet the three criteria for being a full - sized planet. This was because it shared it’s orbital path and hadn’t cleared it’s neighbouring region.
Pluto shares its orbital path with many objects in the Kuiper Belt

What is a dwarf planet?

A dwarf planet is a celestial body that orbits the sun, has to be big enough to be almost  a round shape and has not cleared its orbital path. 

Here is my video about the project

The hardest part was painting the background for our project, but this was a very fun project.
