1930: American Clyde Tombaugh discovered the planet Pluto.
2006: An unelected committee demoted it to a "dwarf" planet.
2026: We’re fixing that. Join us.
🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day, America.
250 years ago, this nation proved that impossible things become possible when ordinary people refuse to quit.
In that same spirit, here’s to the next great American comeback.
Pluto America’s Planet Again!

August 24, 2006 @elonmusk The @IAU_org held a sham vote ( on a made up new arbitrary rule) with less than 4% of the members voting. @AlanStern and All #Pluto Patriots 🇺🇸 know Pluto is OUR Ninth Planet. #PAPA2026#NASA#SPACEX
@IAU_org There are 9 "OG" Planet's in our solar system. We also find your lack of respect for American planetary property to be an issue. #PAPA2026#PLUTO#USA#NASA
Memorial Day is a time to honor and remember the people that gave their lives for our country. To those who put our nation before themselves, and to their family and friends left behind, we honor your sacrifice.
This Memorial Day we honor those who gave everything for this country— and the spirit of American exceptionalism.
From Normandy to #NASA… America always leads the charge.

Check out this image of Arizona’s State Planet - Pluto.
The New Horizons spacecraft recorded images of Pluto back in 2015 and revealed it to be a truly fascinating place. Mountains reaching 11,000 feet high (some say closer to 20k), made of water ice. Plains of frozen nitrogen. Temps of -380 degrees F.
It’s no longer the fuzzy dot Clyde Tombaugh discovered at our @LowellObs back in 1930. It’s a real, tangible place. And, here at least, it’ll always be our scrappy little planet.
