'''Pluto''' is a large 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 [[Democritus|Remote Scanning Outpost Democritus]] is on this Dwarf Planet. On November 3, [[2552]], the Monitoring Station detects [[Cortana]]'s signal in Slipspace with [[Dr. Halsey]]'s message to [[Lord Hood]].<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], page 212</ref>

==Current Known History==
|name=Pluto
Pluto was discovered in 1930, then thought to be the ninth and final planet of our Solar System. Its first moon, Charon, was discovered in 1978. In 2005, 2 more smaller moons were discovered. And the following year, 2006, debates over it's celestial status were discussed by the IAU(International Astronomical Union), and reclassified Pluto to a Dwarf Planet status, along with the largest known Asteroid, Ceres and another larger TNO,(Trans-Neptunian Object) Eris, while the other 8 planets, or more specifically, the 8 Major planets, remain the same status. In early 2007, the New Horizons spacecraft was launched to Pluto, becoming the first spacecraft to visit Pluto in late 2014-middle 2015.

==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}}
