Pluto, formal designation 134340 Pluto, is the second-largest known dwarf planet in the Solar System (after Eris) and the tenth-largest body observed directly orbiting the Sun. Classified as a planet from its 1930 discovery until 2006, Pluto is now considered the largest member of a distinct population called the Kuiper belt.[note 8]Like other members of the Kuiper belt, Pluto is composed primarily of rock and ice and is relatively small: approximately a fifth the mass of the Earth's Moon and a third its volume. It has an eccentric and highly inclined orbit that takes it from 30 to 49 AU (4.4-7.4 billion km) from the Sun. This causes Pluto periodically to come closer to the Sun than Neptune.Pluto and its largest moon, Charon, are sometimes treated together as a binary system because the barycentre of their orbits does not lie within either body.[6] The International Astronomical Union (IAU) has yet to formalise a definition for binary dwarf planets, and until it passes such a ruling, Charon is classified as a moon of Pluto.[7] Pluto has two known smaller moons, Nix and Hydra, discovered in 2005.[8]From its discovery in 1930 until 2006, Pluto was considered the Solar System's ninth planet. In the late 1970s, following the discovery of minor planet 2060 Chiron in the outer Solar System and the recognition of Pluto's very low mass, its status as a major planet began to be questioned.[9] Later, in the early 21st century, many objects similar to Pluto were discovered in the outer Solar System, notably the scattered disc object Eris, which is 27% more massive than Pluto.[10] On August 24, 2006, the IAU defined the term "planet" for the first time. This definition excluded Pluto as a planet, and added it as a member of the new category "dwarf planet" along with Eris and Ceres.[11] After the reclassification, Pluto was added to the list of minor planets and given the number 134340.[12][13] A number of scientists continue to hold that Pluto should be classified as a planet.[14] also its gay.

Why is Eris considered the tenth planet in our solar system?
Eris is a "dwarf planet", and does not have enough gravity to make the surface round, or to clear other objects near to it.

How far from the sun is the tenth planet?
Currently, there are only eight planets in our solar system, so there is no tenth planet. The tenth planet ever to be discovered (not counting Pluto as a planet) is a planet that orbits the star PSR B1257+12. It is about a thousand light years away from the sun.
Do you think a tenth planet exists?
