Re: OT: The solar system has 12 planets

Why cant it simply be

A planet is a solar body orbiting a star on its own stationary orbit, having some sort of atmosphere (remember, all nine "current" planets are believed to have one)

With a moon being a solar body that orbits a planet

This is how I always understood it growing up, and it makes complete sense to me

I suppose a size classification would make sense
