(astronomy) Of or relating to the dwarf planet Pluto. To mark the premiere of English composer Gustav Holst’s orchestral suite The Planets on 29 September 1918, we are featuring a series of words relating to the planets in the Solar System.

However, Colin Matthews composed a movement called Pluto, the Renewer in 2000.
