Does planet Pluto have a satellite?
No, it is not true that Pluto has 7 satellites. Pluto actually has five known satellites which are Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos, and Hydra.
What is the satellites or rings of Pluto?
Pluto has no known rings and it is doubtful that any will be discovered because of Charon. Charon is Pluto's moon or more properly they might be called the Pluto-Charon binary system. The gravitational center of the two bodies is not in the volume of Pluto but in space between it and Charon (for comparison the Earth -Moon system has a common gravitational center - a barycenter - that is a thousand kilometers under the surface of the Earth.
What satellites have been to pluto?
No missions have yet gone to Pluto, but one is on its way.
How many satellites are orbiting Pluto?
As of 2012, there are 4 known natural satellites (moons) of Pluto.Charon was discovered in 1978, Nix and Hydra in 2005, and the fourth moon, provisionally called S/2011P1, was found in 2011. Charon's diameter is over half that of Pluto, and the Pluto-Charon pair actually represent a co-orbiting binary system. Nix and Hydra are both much smaller, having diameters estimated at between 5% and 7% of Pluto's.There are no artificial satellites orbiting Pluto. The unmanned NASA probe "New Horizons" will pass near Pluto in 2015.
What satellites or moons does Pluto have?
Pluto has five known moons: Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos, and Hydra. These moons were all discovered by the Hubble Space Telescope between 2005 and 2012. Charon is the largest and closest moon to Pluto, while the other four are much smaller.

Do Pluto have satellites?
Pluto has at least three moons; Charon, Nix, and Hydra.
What satellites have been to pluto?
No missions have yet gone to Pluto, but one is on its way.
Is Pluto larger than earth's moon?
Pluto has five satellites(moon) which are Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos and Hydra out of which Charon is the Biggest. However, It is approximately half of pluto. If the Charon was bigger than pluto, We would probably be seeing pluto rotating around Charon. This is because,Charon would have more gravitional force than that of pluto as Its size would be bigger. Simply put, Bigger things dont revolve around smaller things. So, Pluto's moons are not bigger than Pluto.
What is the name of the Moon's satellites?
The moon has no natural satellites. The moon is a satellite of the earth. The only satellites that orbit the moon are those that are placed there by people to study the moon.
