Dwarf Planet Pluto

ui

the gravitational field of Pluto is 3.761n/kg

The further away from the sun, the less light/heat/radiation reaches it, it also means that the orbit is longer. The outer planets are all gaseous (the gas giants) due to the pressure difference

It's one of the earliest signs of puberty. Hang in there... it's a bumpy ride from here.

Pluto does not interact with any planets.

A.

It is too far from the Sun.

B.

Its orbit is not cleared of like-sized or larger objects.

C.

It is not large enough in size.

D.

It does not have rings.

the answer is C

Pluto the dwarf planet is an example of of a dwarf planet.

The planet Mars, which is the fourth planet from the sun, takes 1.88 Earth years to make one full orbit around the sun.

Technically, there could possibly be life on Pluto.

Think about this: humans and other animals on earth need the warmth and oxygen. Just because humans and other animals on earth need oxygen, water and warmth to survive, doesn't mean that other types of creatures need this. How do we know that there is not a species living on Pluto that thrives of methane and needs the cold instead of the warmth to survive?

However, the New Horizons spacecraft reached Pluto 2015 and didn't detect any life from orbit.

About as far as Earth or the Sun is.

No, no robot has gone to Pluto, other than the onboard computers of the New Horizons spacecraft, which observed Pluto from orbit.

Not yet. The New Horizons space probe, launched in 2006, will fly by Pluto in June 2015. Humans themselves have only been as far as the moon.

Never. Pluto was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh, in 1930.

Pluto use to be a planet but not anymore.Scientists have figured out that Pluto ism uch to small to be a planet.So now we just call Pluto a dwarf planet.A dwarf planet is kind of like a planet.It is a VERY small sized planet.A regular planet is a normal sized or a big sized planet.If the planet is too small then it is considered as a dwarf planet.

It was given the name by Clyde Tomabaugh, the astronomer who discovered it in 1930.

Tombaugh followed the historic practice of naming planets and planetoids after Greek and Roman gods. At the time of its discovery the (now dwarf) planet was the farthest known body orbiting the sun, and Pluto was the Greek god of the underworld and darkness.

No. Neptune is the twin of Uranus.

As of 2006 Pluto is no longer considered a planet. Prior to that it was counted as the least massive planet in the solar system.

The small planets are the ones smaller than 8000 miles in diameter. The large planets are the large ones larger than 30,000 miles in diameter.

A human could float with ease on Pluto, but could not propel himself/herself due to lack of significant atmosphere.

The facts about every planet that we read in different sources are always approximate predictions until a probe really tests it. For example, Mars was thought to have 99 % CO2 in it's atmosphere but when the space probes tested it it came out that there was O2 present there too.

Neither would be hospitable. Both planets are too close to the Sun and the intense heat would make both planets inhospitable.

The New Horizons space probe was the first spacecraft to explore Pluto. The mission to the minor planet happened in 2015.

yes

Pluto is a Dwarf Planet because it is too small to be a Classical Planet.

Dwarf Planets are much smaller than Classical Planets.

If you look at a diagram of the solar system with Pluto in it, you will see that it is much smaller compared to the other Classical Planets.

nothing, if the dwarf planet Pluto magically disappears will not have to worry about anything.
