Observations are "slowly chipping away" at the mysteries of Pluto, Grundy said, "but the really big breakthroughs probably won't come until we see Pluto up close from a spacecraft flyby."
That's expected to occur in 2015, when New Horizons finally reaches the distant world after a nine-year journey.

by ability of present day reckoning of the courtroom situations on the prevailing IAU convention it really is probable to stay in the Premiership of planets. If Charon get's promoted to planet prestige it really is truly extremely real looking because Charon does no longer actually orbit Pluto. that's just about equivalent in length to Pluto and has similar characteristics. Pluto and Charon both rotate round a critical element of gravity between them.

Absolutely not, get on to the New Horizons site at JPL, Nasa or JHPL. It has 3 moons and the New Horizons probe is both the fastest and is man's greatest endeavour. Jules, Australia.
