A Planet?

Pluto, which used to be a planet not so long ago, is no longer considered one because qualify as a planet like Earth and Mars need three important things.

These include:

1.It needs to orbit the the sun-Yes, Pluto does orbit the Sun

2.It needs to has enough gravity to pull itself into a spherical shape-Yep, Pluto is spherical all right

3.It needs to have enough gravitational pull and govern all other objects in orbit-Sadly no it does not. Pluto is too small to govern everything around it. So in reality, it is a Dwarf Planet. The objects around Pluto have almost the same size as Pluto.

So, if Pluto is not a planet, then Alpha Centauri can't be one either. First of all, Alpha Centauri is a STAR so it can not be a PLANET. How could a star orbit another star. It can't. It's impossible. Alpha Centauri is a star and can't be anything else. It can be a body, but so can many other things in Space. No two bodies can be more then two things.
