So the solar system's gas giants are literally kicking Pluto out of the club. Poor Pluto—first it gets demoted from planet status, and now it's getting a red card from the cosmic referee. The title references "Milkomeda," which is the future merged galaxy when the Milky Way and Andromeda collide in about 4.5 billion years. Basically, Pluto (Hades in Greek mythology) is being ejected so hard it'll be wandering the eventual Milkomeda galaxy for eternity. The "fifth giant planet" theory suggests there was once another ice giant in our solar system that got yeeted into interstellar space by gravitational interactions with Jupiter and Saturn. Looks like Pluto's about to join that cosmic exile. Neptune, Uranus, Jupiter, and Saturn are basically the popular kids deciding Pluto isn't cool enough for their gravitational neighborhood. Talk about adding insult to injury—not only are you not a planet anymore, but you're also getting ejected from the solar system entirely. At least Pluto will have billions of years to contemplate its life choices while drifting through the void.
