I can settle that one for you.
Pluto WAS a planet until about 3 years ago when it was downgraded to a mere dwarf planet. This was due to the other outlying objects that are not classed as planets but are larger than Pluto
So officially we only have 8 planets in the solar system now, but some people still consider Pluto to be the ninth.
Techically both are correct, it is a dwarf planet...;)
