I’m guessing very thin clouds at most.

Clouds, no clouds, thin clouds - I don't care about that so much as finally having some better observations & answers about Pluto.

If you squint your eyes just right, you can see them. Kinda.

Reason for the effort to downgrade Pluto’s status as a planet is that the Sumerian tablets treat it as one. I do not remember what the tablets say about its composition or appearance however I believe they do list moons.

The tablets list the planets from the outside going in—so they list Pluto first.
