Dwarf Planet Pluto

No, Pluto does not have humidity as it has a very thin atmosphere composed mostly of nitrogen, methane, and carbon monoxide. These gases do not create the conditions necessary for humidity to exist on Pluto.

The symbol for Charon, the largest moon of the dwarf planet Pluto, is a combination of the letters "C" and "H." The "C" stands for "Charon" and the "H" represents the shared first initial of Pluto's discoverer, Clyde W. Tombaugh.

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus & Neptune are the four outer planets the four inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.

Year is the amount of time it takes the Earth to revolve around the sun. It takes Pluto about 250 years to complete one revolution about the sun.

In 1905, Percival Lowell predicted that a new planet, which he called "Planet X," would be found beyond Neptune. This prediction eventually led to the discovery of Pluto in 1930, though it was later reclassified as a dwarf planet.

Classical planets are the five planets visible to the naked eye from Earth: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. They have been observed since ancient times and hold significance in various astrological and astronomical systems.

Kepler's third law of planetary motion, which states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of its semi-major axis or orbital radius. This relationship allows astronomers to predict the orbital periods of planets based on their distances from the sun.

In August 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) redefined the criteria for what qualifies as a planet. Pluto did not meet these updated criteria and was therefore reclassified as a "dwarf planet" rather than a full-fledged planet.

Yes, there are moons that do not orbit planets but instead orbit other celestial bodies like asteroids or dwarf planets. For example, some moons of dwarf planets in the Kuiper Belt do not orbit a planet.

Pluto, Eris, Ceres, Haumea and Makemake are the dwarf planets found so far. As you can see there are 5 now, not just 4.

Yes, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft conducted a historic flyby of Pluto on July 14, 2015, capturing the most detailed images of the dwarf planet to date. It provided valuable data and insights into Pluto's geology and atmosphere.

Comet tails are made up primarily of dust, rock, and gas expelled from the comet as it is heated by the Sun. The frozen gases expand and throw off material, some of which is blown by the solar wind into a "tail" for the comet.

(The tail is always pointing away from the Sun.)

It thickness or thinness is measured by the molecular weight and the surface pressure. The average molecular weight is about 28 and the pressure is 15 lb/sq.in. That can be compared with atmospheres on other planets e.g. Venus, Mars and all the outer planets.

Pluto was reclassified from a planet to a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union because it did not meet all three criteria needed to be classified as a planet. One of those criteria is that a planet must have cleared its orbit of other debris, and Pluto shares its orbit with other objects in the Kuiper Belt.

One unusual aspect of Pluto's moon is that it is nearly half the size of Pluto itself, making it one of the largest moons relative to its planet in the solar system. Additionally, its orbit is highly elliptical and tilted, unlike most other moons that orbit closer to their planet's equator.

Aidoneus, Aides (meaning, like Hades, the unseen), Pluto (the rich one), Ditis Pater, Dis Pater, Dis(all meaning the rich one), Orcus (killer), Polydectes (the receiver of many), Clymenus (the Illustrious), Eubulus (the giver of good counsel), etc. He is the "one of many names".

Celestial bodies that orbit around a planet are called moons or natural satellites. Moons can vary in size and composition, and they usually orbit their parent planet due to gravitational forces. Some planets have multiple moons, such as Jupiter and Saturn, while others have none, like Venus and Mercury.

It takes light approximately 5.5 hours to travel from the Sun to Pluto, which is about 4.67 billion miles away at its farthest point. The time it takes for a beam of light to reach Pluto depends on its distance from Earth at any given time.

Pluto has been classified as a dwarf planet in the Solar System since 2006. This reclassification was made by the International Astronomical Union (IAU).

On August 24, 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) announced a formal definition of planet that established a tripartite classification for objects in orbit around the Sun: "small Solar System bodies" were those objects too small for their gravity to have collapsed their surfaces into a rounded shape; "dwarf planets" were those objects large enough to be rounded, but who had yet to clear their orbits of similar-sized objects; "planets" were those objects that were both large enough to be rounded by self-gravity and which had cleared their orbits of similar-sized objects.[22] Under this classification, Pluto, Eris and Ceres were reclassified as dwarf planets.[22] Makemake is one of those "crazy" planets.

Your weight on Pluto would be approximately 4.5% of your weight on Earth, so you would weigh about 6.75 pounds on Pluto. This is due to Pluto's significantly weaker gravitational pull compared to Earth.

On July 14th, 2015, the space probe "New Horizons" will reach the dwarf planet Pluto on it's flyby. Your "easiest" way to get to Pluto is thus to do it mentally, and let that probe be your eyes, ears and hands.

That is, after all, the point of those probes. They are like a man on Earth using a telescope to save walking across a field. You've "got to" the other side of the field with a telescope as surely as if you'd walked.

On the other hand, we've rockets in design that might carry us the 55 million kilometers to Mars in a journey of about 30 days. Given that Pluto is 5,913,520,000 kilometers away (on average), we might be able to go there in about 8.83 years.

That would be a major undertaking, and would require the ship to be an enclosed self-sustaining environment. And it would be going to Pluto for no point. There are plenty of resources closer to home - the moon, Mars, the asteroid belt, even the moons of Jupiter and Saturn.

Frankly, Pluto is not likely to be ever worth the construction of a life ship that after 8 or 9 years would only see what the probes have already seen, and only be able to mine that which we could mine cheaper in the asteroid belt. One may well have to wait for population pressure and strip mining of all nearer planets, before it could be worthwhile. Say in the year 3,500.

Thus, I'm sorry to say, that the "easiest" way I gave at the top, is actually going to be the "only" way for your lifetime, and your grandchildren's lifetime. Barring some staggeringly unforeseen breakthrough in cheap and super fast interplanetary transport.

Pluto and Jupiter are both planets in our solar system. Jupiter is the largest planet, while Pluto was considered the ninth planet until it was reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006. Both planets have moons orbiting them, with Jupiter having the largest number of moons in the solar system.

The simple answer is that it doesn't!

It will change what kids learn in school about the solar system but that's about it. For the scientists and astronomers it means they will need to take into account the definition of 'planet' and 'dwarf planet' when classifying new planets in the future or even reclassifying current planets/dwarf planets...

Hope that helped :)
