Pluto

BASIC INFO

Pluto, once considered the ninth planet in our solar system, is now classified as a dwarf planet. Discovered in 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh, Pluto orbits the Sun beyond Neptune in the Kuiper Belt, a region of icy bodies. It has five known moons, with Charon being the largest and closest. NASA's New Horizons mission provided the first close-up images of Pluto in 2015, revealing a diverse and geologically active world.

SOME RANDOM FACTS

Pluto has a large heart-shaped feature on its surface, informally named "Tombaugh Regio."
Pluto's largest moon, Charon, is tidally locked with Pluto, meaning the same side of Charon always faces Pluto as they orbit each other.
Pluto's surface features include mountains, plains, and valleys, as well as regions covered in frozen nitrogen, methane, and carbon monoxide.
