Dwarf Planets
Have you ever heard of Pluto? Not the Disney Character, Mickey’s dog, Pluto, nor the guy who was trying to beat up Popeye. That’s BLUTO. Or he is also called Brutus. So I am talking about the dwarf planet, Pluto. You might be thinking: “Hey, isn’t Pluto a Normal planet? And what on earth are dwarf planets?”Well, Pluto got demoted into a dwarf planet, which I will explain, and no, dwarf plants are not on earth. Dwarf planets are like mini-planets, but they have differences. First of all, most dwarf planets have strange orbits that are highly elliptical. They are very tiny as well. Unless you compare it with a human. Some still have moons like Pluto having the moon Charon (pronounced ‘sharon’), but others can have awkward shapes. Haumea, a dwarf planet in our solar system, is stretched to become like an egg! This is due to its rapid spinning. By the way, Eris is the biggest dwarf planet, not Pluto. Obviously, dwarf planets are in space, but not only in our solar system....
