The year 2006 was a busy one for space and technology workers. A planet lost its status and space flights caught the imagination of people around the world. The following is a short list of the major events of the year:____________ IBM has built a chip that runs about 100 times faster than the ones we have now. The development could lead to faster computers. The chip was first made in June. It can run at a speed of 500 gigahertz (千兆赫). Pluto loses face The International Astronomical Union created the first scientific definition (定义) of the word 'planet' in August. Under the new rules, Pluto is no longer called a planet but a 'dwarf planet' (矮行星). Pluto had been considered a planet since its discovery in 1930.
