My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas...Quickly?

This acronym, for remembering the names of the nine planets in the solar system, may need modification. Either an addition or a deletion, depending on how the debate goes.

Astonomers have found a new world, currently dubbed "Quaoar."
It's the largest object found in our solar system since Pluto, the original Planet X. Quaoar is a KBO, a Kuiper Belt Object; which is part of the problem for the long-term survival of the acronym.

Because KBO orbits interweave with Plutos' and some are nearly its size, some planetary elitists are now asking - just what is a planet?

"Quaoar definitely hurts the case for Pluto being a planet," says Caltech planetary science associate professor Mike Brown. "If Pluto were discovered today, no one would even consider calling it a planet because it's clearly a Kuiper belt object."

So Dr. Brown, are you suggesting the acronym change to something like
My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Noodles...and drop the peezzapie?

Why not M.V.E.M.J.S.U...Nectarines, Kiwis, Bananas and Oranges?

Quaoarians celebrate New Years Eve only once every 288 years. Not very exciting news for the champagne industry. What kind of champagne are you?
