The world of music will never be the same since the formation of a band in Liverpool, England in 1956. The Beatles were formed by George Harrison, Ringo Start, Paul McCartney, and John Lennon. Their first hit song "Love Me Do" was recorded in 1962. The Beatles quickly became the world’s best known pop music group and many people today still regard them as the finest band in the history of pop music.

Ever since its discovery, Pluto has never really fitted in. After the pale and glowing giant Neptune, it is little more than a cosmic dust mite, swept through the farthest reaches of the solar system on a planet wildly tilted relative to the rest of the planets. It is smaller than Neptune’s largest moon, and the arc of its orbit is so oval that it occasionally crosses its massive blue neighbor’s path.
For years, it has been seen as our solar system’s oddest planet. Yesterday, however, scientists released perhaps the most convincing evidence yet that Pluto, in fact, is not a planet at all. For the first time, astronomers have peered into a belt of rocks beyond Pluto unknown until 10 years ago—and found a world that rivals Pluto in size. The scientists posit that larger rocks must be out there, perhaps even larger than Pluto, meaning Pluto is more likely the king of this distant realm of space detritus than the tiniest of the nine planets.
