Pluto

Eyes on the Sky

by Don Nardo

In the cold, dark, lonely environment of the outer reaches of the Solar System lies Pluto, the smallest and most distant planet in the sun's family. Because it is so far away, Pluto remains largely mysterious. Yet in recent years astronomers have found important clues to its physical features, formation, and relationship with its single moon, Charon.
