Does Pluto have the largest moon?

No. Pluto's largest moon, Charon, is not the largest moon in the solar system. It is, however, the largest moon in proportion to its parent body.


Is Charon the largest moon in our solar system or just the largest moon of Pluto?

It's the largest moon of Pluto. It is nowhere NEAR being the largest moon in the Solar system; Pluto itself is smaller than Earth's moon. Charon is, however, the largest satellite relative to its primary of any body I know of in the Solar system.

What planets is farthest from the sun 1. Earth 2.Venus 3.Pluto 4.Mercury?

Pluto was relegated to "Dwarf Planet" status in 2006, but irrespective of planetary status, it is still a body orbiting our sun. Pluto (Dwarf planet) is about 5,913 million km from the sun (on average). Earth is about 150 million km from the sun. Venus is about 108 million km from the sun. Mercury is about 58 million km from the sun. Depending on your definition of a planet, Pluto is easily the furthest but, if you insist that Pluto is no longer a planet, then it must be Earth.


What planet has the greatest change in radius distance as it revolves around its primary body which is the sun?

Pluto :) Another viewpoint: Pluto is only a "dwarf planet". So, I think the answer is Mercury. Mercury has the most elliptical orbit of the planets. However, Mercury also has the smallest orbit. So, its distance from the Sun varies most in percentage terms, but not necessarily in actual kilometers. In fact, in kilometers, the answer is Uranus.

Which are the four biggest satellites of Jupiter?

Jupiter has 63 satellites/moons. But it has 4 large one known as: 1. Ganymede (largest in the Solar System) 2. Io (most geologically active body in the Solar System) 3. Europa (has ice and rocks on its surface) 4. Callisto (contains many craters)


Why planet Pluto was not anymore a member of the solar system?

The IAU decides what is a planet and what is not. Pluto is an icy body which has not cleared a substantial fraction of material from its orbit, and it is smaller than other bodies residing in the Kuiper Belt. It is also more of a coplanet with Charon, its largest moon. For these reasons Pluto is considered a dwarf planet.
