Name Pluto's new Moons

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

The heck with the new Pope! Pluto’s had three new cmoons discovered. Hrere’s a chance to actually help determine the new names:

My suggestions:

1.) Yuggoth, Cthulhu, and Nyarlathotep
2.) K.B., Fifi, anfd Junior*

*Pluto had Five pups in two different Disney cartoons, but, AFAIK, they were never named. In other places he had one offspring, named either KB or Pluto, Junior. Fifi was his Pekinese spouse in the 5-pup cartoon.

I second this one.

Orpheus and Eurydice.

There have only been two new moons discovered. Three had already been known, bringing the total up to five.

10

Cerberus, Orpheus, and Persephone are already asteroids; the first two are notable Mars-crossers, the last an early-identified main belt. I know that the rules don’t preclude asteroid names doubling up with other objects–it’s still not ideal.

11

P6 and P7.

12

Are they sure they’re moons and not battle stations?

13

Calibos and Eurydice seem logical, if they’re not already taken too.

14

I really need to get out more. I didn’t even know it had two other known moons. Does this mean Pluto gets to be a planet again? If it’s not a planet then how can it have moons? Wouldn’t they just all be planetoids? Asteroids? Roving gangs of moons?

15

No. There are at least dozens, and maybe hundreds, of objects in Solar orbit with moons in orbit around them. It has nothing to do with being a planet. For example the main-belt asteroid 22 Kalliope’s moon is called Linus. 87 Sylvia has two little moons, Romulus and Remus. Pluto’s very distant fellow dwarf planet Eris is orbited by Dysnomia. There are many others, some where both primary and moon just have numbers.

16

Pfft! You and your damned science logic! I want Pluto to be a planet, dammit!

17

Bemin, Cemin and Memim

18

Klaatu, Borada and Nikto.

19

The Planet Pluto would be a great name for a moon of Pluto.
