What is Pluto to day?

Pluto is currently classified as a Dwarf Planet, it has however varied between a full planet, a moon, and now a dwarf planet. Dwarf Planets are functionally the same as a regular planet, their size is just a bit smaller.


How many years are in a day?

None, unless you are talking about the dwarf planet Pluto in which the planet's day is longer than it's year.


Is Pluto lost?

Pluto is not lost, its orbit is well understood and there are people who know exactly where it is on any given day. However Pluto has an orbit that is unusually eccentric, and is inclined by 17 degrees to the ecliptic. That means it is found well off the beaten track where the eight major planets can always be found, near the ecliptic.


How long are dwarf planets days and years?

The length of a day on a dwarf planet can vary depending on its rotation speed. For example, on Pluto, a day lasts about 6.4 Earth days. A dwarf planet's year is determined by its orbital period around the Sun, which can range from several Earth years for bodies like Pluto to over 248 Earth years for bodies like Eris.


Has pluto ever been hit by an asteroid?

There is no evidence that Pluto has been hit by an asteroid. Pluto's distance from the asteroid belt helps protect it from most asteroid impacts. However, it is possible that smaller objects, such as comets or Kuiper Belt objects, have collided with Pluto in the past.


Would constellation look the same in Pluto?

No. Pluto is a dwarf planet, not a star, and is not visible to the naked eye.


Does Pluto have a night?

Yes. Pluto rotates on it's axis in 6d 9h 17m 36s. So nighttime on Pluto during its equinox lasts about 3 days and 5 hours.

Does sedna have moons?

Yes, there is a celestial object called Sedna (90377 Sedna), which is a dwarf planet candidate orbiting far beyond Neptune and Pluto. Its closest approach to the Sun is about 1.5 times the maximum for Pluto, with an extreme elliptical orbit varying from 76 AU to 975 AU.As the farthest identified object orbiting the Sun, Sedna takes about 12,000 Earth years to complete one orbit. It will reach its next closest approach to the Sun in the year 2075. Only the dwarf planet Eris is current farther from the Sun.Its size is estimated at approximately three-quarters the size of Pluto, or about 1,000 miles (1200-1600 km) in diameter.(For size comparison with Earth, Moon and Pluto, please see the link below)More on SednaSedna rotates very slowly. It takes at least 20 days to complete a rotation, maybe as long as 50 days. The gravitational pull of a moon would be the best explanation for this slow rotation. Almost all other minor bodies in the solar system rotate in a matter of hours. Pluto has a six-day rotation because it has a satellite, Charon. But Sedna has no moon.
