It was regarded as such at the time the programme was written and broadcast; in [[2006]], Pluto lost that distinction when it was redefined as dwarf planet. The fact it is once again the ninth planet in the timeframe of this story suggests it somehow regains this status in the future (perhaps related to the physical changes made to it).
