Ceres and Eris are both dwarf planets located in the asteroid belt and the scattered disk, respectively. Ceres, the largest object in the asteroid belt, is known for its water ice and potential for hosting microbial life. Eris, discovered in 2005, is one of the most massive known dwarf planets and is notable for its highly elliptical orbit and surface covered in ice. Both bodies are part of the classification of celestial objects that fall outside the traditional definitions of planets.
