Do any of the dwarf planets have moons?
Pluto ... which I think was the first member of the newly-defined "dwarf planet" category ... has two known moons.
Why is Pluto no longer a planet?
because Pluto is like an asteroid it is so tiny
Is dwarf planet Ceres a gas or rocky planet?
No. Ceres, which used to be considered an asteroid, was recategorized as a "dwarf planet" in 2006, about the same time that Pluto was. Ceres is a small rocky body, the biggest in the asteroid belt.
How big is Eris compared to earth?
The dwarf planet Eris truly deserves its designation as "dwarf planet"; it is less than one quarter of Earth's diameter, and about one percent of Earth's mass.
Who is the goddess of strife?
Eris (Greek ????, "Strife") is the Greek goddess of strife, discord, contention and rivalry, her name being translated into Latin as Discordia, -ae, I-f. Her Greek opposite is Harmonia, whose Latin counterpart is Concordia. Homer equated her with the war-goddess Enyo. Eris, the solar system's largest known dwarf planet, is named after the goddess.
