What planet does Pluto orbit?
Pluto doesn't orbit any planets, it orbits the sun. But if you mean what planet does Pluto share a orbit with is Neptune. Pluto sometimes is closer to the sun than Neptune because it cuts into Neptune's orbit.
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 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.
Does Pluto have its own moon?
Yes, the dwarf planet Pluto has five moons down to a detection limit of about 1 km in diameter. In order of distance from Pluto, they are:CharonStyxNixKerberosHydraCharon, the largest of the five moons, is mutually tidally locked with Pluto, and is massive enough that Pluto-Charon is sometimes considered a double dwarf planet.
Is Pluto one of Jupiter's moons?
No! It used to be a planet and know it is a dwarf planet. It is at the edge of the solar system, and is pretty (as in really) far away from Jupiter.It is small enough to be one of Jupiter's moonsHi, just wanted to add something- why would you even think Pluto was one of Jupiter's moons?! They are nowhere near eachother. I would be ashamed if I asked such a dumb question like this.
What planet has four out of sixteen moons that are bigger than Pluto?
That would probably be Jupiter with Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto
What planet's only moon is named Charon?
There is no such planet. Charon is the name of one of the moons of Pluto. Pluto has four other moons in addition to Charon, but they were not discovered until much later. Additionally, as of 2006 Pluto is no longer considered a planet.
What planet has four satellites?
There is no major planet in the Solar System with four moons. Jupiter has at least 67, Saturn has at least 62, Uranus has 27 known moons, and Neptune has 14. Among the inner planets, Mars has two small moons and the Earth has one large Moon. The dwarf planet Pluto has 5 moons. One (Charon) is half as large as Pluto and the other four are very small. If Pluto and Charon were considered co-planets, they would be said to have 4 moons.
Do Pluto has twice as many moons as the earth?
Pluto has four known moons, four times as many as the Earth.
What planet in the solar system has 4 moons?
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune each have more than four. Mars has two, Earth has one, Venus and Mercury don't have any. No planet has exactly four moons. Pluto, a minor planet, has four known moons: Charon, Nix, Hydra, and P4.
How many moon do Pluto has?
Pluto has four moons.
Can dwarf planets have moons?
Yes, and they do. Not all of them have confirmed moons but some do. Pluto, for example, has four known moons.
Why does Pluto have four moons?
As of 2012, it was up to 5 moons - S/2012 (134340)1, or P5, was given the name Styx. Pluto and Charon may have formed due to a large collision between two protoplanets, which also created the other 4 small moons of Pluto, which gradually drifted farther from the planet.

Are there new planets in the solar system?
No. The last new planet discovered in our Solar System was Neptune, in the year 1846. There are almost certainly no planets in the Solar System waiting to be discovered.Pluto, and a few other objects now classified as "dwarf planets", have been discovered since, but they're tiny ... Pluto, for example, is significantly smaller than many of the actual planets' moons (the Earth's Moon, four of Jupiter's moons, three of Saturn's moons, four of Uranus' moons, and one of Neptune's moons are larger than Pluto). The only planet having moons at all that doesn't have at least one moon larger than Pluto is Mars.
