The Kuiper belt lies beyond the orbit of Neptune and includes Pluto, which was traditionally classed with the planets. In 2006, the International Astronomical Union declared Pluto to be a dwarf planet that resides in the Kuiper Belt. Compare Oort cloud. The American Heritage® Student Science ...

(little Plutos). So, while Pluto is a dwarf among planets, it may be ‘King’ of the TNOs. Since Pluto’s moon Charon is so large (relative to Pluto), Pluto is often considered a binary system. As such, Pluto could be considered not only the largest TNO, but the largestbinaryTNO ...

Over 1000 Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) and centaurs (objects with perihelia between the giant planets) have been discovered over the past two decades. While the vast majority of these objects are small ( 500鈥塳m in diameter), there are now many objects known that are massive enough to ...
really be considered as a planet or as one of the largest bodies in the Kuiper belt. Evidence mounted that Pluto was a KBO that just happened to have been discovered 62 years before 1992 QB1, and in 2006 theInternational Astronomical Unionvoted to classify Pluto and Eris asdwarf planets. ...
Eris, large, distant body of the solar system, revolving around the Sun well beyond the orbits of Neptune and Pluto in the Kuiper belt. It was discovered in 2005 in images taken two years earlier at Palomar Observatory in California, U.S. Before it recei
