The story of astrophysicist Mike Brown whose calling it is to observe the skies, trying to find new objects in our solar system. When he finds one particular object, the space community has come to grips with the fact that Pluto may actually not be a planet - and what exactly is a planet anyways?
Extremely entertaining, and sometimes shocking to learn about the politics of "who saw it first". I liked it a lot.
