Scientists hypothesize the existence of a ninth planet, called Planet Nine, based on unusual clustering of Kuiper Belt objects and computer simulations suggesting a large, distant gas giant with an orbit 20-30 times farther from the sun than Neptune. However, its existence remains unconfirmed and controversial, with ongoing debates and challenges in observation.

New research using the James Webb Space Telescope suggests that Pluto's moons Nix and Hydra may be composed of material ejected from Charon during its formation, indicating they could be fragments of Charon's interior. This supports the idea that these moons originated from debris created in a collision that formed Pluto and Charon, and they may still be interacting with Charon's surface today. The findings provide new insights into the history and composition of Pluto's satellite system.

Dwarf planets are celestial bodies smaller than planets but larger than asteroids, with only five officially recognized by the IAU, including Pluto, Eris, Haumea, Makemake, and Ceres. There may be hundreds or thousands more in the solar system, especially beyond the Kuiper Belt, but many remain undiscovered due to their faintness and distance from Earth.
