Pluto Was A MOON of NEPTUNE Pluto's present solar orbit CROSSES Neptune's solar orbit in TWO places. From 1979 to 1999, Pluto was INSIDE Neptune's orbit. Pluto was ORIGINALLY a MOON of NEPTUNE. Pluto's separation from Neptune is one of SEVERAL MAJOR ANOMALIES in our solar system. These anomalies also include Uranus TIPPED OVER ON ITS SIDE, its WEIRD- looking moon Miranda, the ASTEROID BELT between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter where there SHOULD BE a PLANET, the THIN ATMOSPHERE of Mars, the THICK ATMOSPHERE of Venus which is SLOWLY rotating BACKWARDS, and the problematic PRESENCE of Earth's Moon. Most ALL of our solar system's major anomalies can be summed up in only two words: GALACTIC WARFARE. See http://www.paoweb.com and Page 35 of the book "Your First Contact", by Sheldan Nidle, 2005.
