And nobody would dump the King of the Kuiper belt, which is why we spent over a billion bucks and over a decade to drive by, sadly too fast.

That thing is moving 36,000 miles per hour.

Pluto should feel lucky. The other big Kuiper belt objects (or "planets", if we have to call them that) like Eris probably won't get a visit from Earth any time soon.
