This unique edition explores the decision of the International Astronomical Union in 2006 to remove Pluto from the category of planets. Despite this decision, Pluto gained many supporters who rallied around it during the debate about its status. Neil deGrasse Tyson, who participated in the first presentation that led to Pluto's demotion, seeks the reasons behind this cultural obsession in America. With an impressive humorous approach, Tyson analyzes the history of planetary categorization and the American cult of Pluto, which is now considered a dwarf planet.
