'''Pluto''' is a small celestial object in the [[Solar System]], and the second-largest known dwarf planet (after Eris) as well as the tenth-largest body observed directly orbiting the [[Sun]]. It was named after the Roman God of the Underworld. The [[Remote Scanning Outpost]] ''[[Democritus]]'' is on this Dwarf Planet. On November 3, [[2552]], the Monitoring Station detected [[Cortana]]'s signal in [[Slipspace]] with [[Dr. Halsey]]'s message to [[Lord Hood]].<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], page 212</ref>
As of 2552 there are no human facilities on the dwarf-planet's surface, however several military and scientific stations orbit Pluto.<ref>[[Halo Encyclopedia]], page 283</ref>


==History==
==History==
Pluto was discovered in the early 20th-century. It was originally considered a [[planet]] and thought to be causing issues in [[Neptune]]'s orbit but was then downgraded to a dwarf planet when Pluto was determined to be ill-suited for that.{{Ref/Reuse|enc295}}
Pluto was discovered in 1930, then thought to be the ninth and final planet of the Solar System. Its first moon, Charon, was discovered in 1978. In 2005, 2 more smaller moons were discovered. In 2006, arguments began to arise on whether Pluto was actually large enough to be considered a planet. After much debate, Pluto (along with the asteroid Ceres and the object Eris) became newly classified as dwarf planets.

In 2007, a space probe named ''New Horizons'' was launched to gather more information on Pluto. It was scheduled to arrive at the dwarf planet in 2014 or 2015. It was also the first spacecraft to ever visit Pluto.
On November 3, [[2552]], ''Democritus'' detected [[Cortana]]'s signal in [[slipspace]] with [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey]]'s message to [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=goopg212|[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]|Page=212}}
