UPCOMING EVENTS
A horrible injustice has occurred! Concerned citizens, aghast astronomers, intrepid interstellar adventurers, and other luminaries have joined forces to protest one of the darkest days in recent solar system history. Pluto—the smallest and most distant planet—has been removed from the planetary pantheon.
We refuse to bow to this outrageous decree, and declare: PLUTO IS A PLANET.
In 2006, the International Astronomical Union (or IAU), the body governing the standards used to describe astronomical phenomena, decided to redefine the term “planet.” Thus Pluto was reclassified as a “Dwarf Planet,” a move that has outraged astronomers, incensed explorers, and dishonored its discoverers. We declare: science is wrong- Pluto belongs!
Reclassifying Pluto a terrible mistake that we must rectify. Join the movement—support Pluto!
Join 826 Seattle and the Greenwood Space Travel Supply Co. SATURDAY MARCH 13, at 1pm for the 3rd Annual Pluto IS a Planet Protest March and Rally. The march leaves the GSTS (located at 8414 Greenwood Ave N.), heads north to 87th, and returns to Neptune Coffee (located at 8415 Greenwood Ave N) for the rally. The public is invited to bring signs and chants of protest.
Can't make it? Show your support by sporting a Pluto tee-shirt or button, hanging a Pluto poster in your window, or sending a brief message of protest on a Pluto postcard. All items are available in the Store or online.
