Pluto’s Moons

The five known moons living with Pluto

Charon

Pluto’s closest moon and best friend. They influence each other equally that sometimes they’re referred to as a ‘dwarf planet’ duo.

No one has seen him speak and he mostly expresses his opinion by writing on a small board he carries around all the time.

He’s into reading fantasy books during his free time.

Styx (formerly S/2012 (134340) 1)

The newest and smallest member. She is a bit shy but the former only girl, Nix, adores her like a little sister.

She joined a year later after Kerberos.

Nix

A cheerful big sister. She and Hydra both became members at the same time, that’s why they’re close. Both of them are members of the Tumbling Moon Club with Hyperion.

She is quite fond of the newbie Kerberos, who hangs out with them lately.

Among the moons, save for Charon, she has the one with the most HD pics.

Kerberos (formerly  S/2011 (134340) 1)

One of the new members. He joined one year earlier than Styx.

He’s a silent kid who likes hanging out with Nix and Hydra which he affectionately calls his ‘big sis’ and ‘bro’

Hydra

The most distant moon.

He and Nix are close friends who both became members of the Pluto household at the same time. Recently a bit jealous of Kerberos, a newbie likes hanging out with them and is close to Nix.
