To be a killjoy, Pluto is a tiny ball of ice in perpetual near darkness. It is unlike a planet in every way except being round. No one will ever see it with their own eyes. Amazing how much money we’re able to waste just to get a few pictures of it.
At least it’s not Uranus.
Actually, it’s not that dark. More like about sunrise or sunset on earth.

“It is unlike a planet in every way except being round.”
You are full of it.
It is in orbit around the Sun.
Wasted? If it is indeed a ball of ice, its the last gas station on the way to the stars. Not wasted at all.
Never say never. Someday, perhaps in your lifetime, perhaps in a hundred years, somebody may discover something worth mining there.
