The dwarf planet Makemake has at least one moon, tentatively designated S/2015(136742)-1, or MK-2.
It was photographed in April 2015 and announced on April 26, 2016. Its very dark surface and orbital alignment make it very difficult to spot.
No. Of the five objects currently recognized as dwarf planets, two do not have moons. Those objects are Ceres and Makemake.
Makemake is a dwarf planet in the outer region of our solar system, named after a deity of the Rapa Nui people of Easter Island. It was discovered in 2005 and is one of the largest objects in the Kuiper Belt. Makemake lacks a significant atmosphere and is covered in frozen methane, ethane, and nitrogen.
A year on Makemake, a dwarf planet in the outer solar system, is equivalent to 309 Earth years. This means that a year on Makemake consists of approximately 112,635 days.
Pluto and Makemake have the following similarities, as far as we know:They both orbit the SunThey are both ball-shapedThey both have asteroids and other debris in their paths around the SunThey both have at least one moon (Pluto has 5, Makemake has at least 1)

Makemake does not have any known moons.
Makemake has one known moon, known for the moment as MK-2. It is about 100 miles across.
No -- scientists have recently discovered a moon orbiting Makemake, for the moment known as MK-2. It is about 100 miles across. Ceres on the other hand has no moons.
moons Makemake has at least one known moon, currently called MK-2. It is only about 100 miles across, making it smaller than some asteroids.
Ceres: No moons Pluto: 3 moons (Nix, Hydra, and Charon) Haumea: 2 moons (Hi'ika and Namaka) Makemake: No moons Eris: 1 moon (Dysncmia)
