If as our new ordsprog

If, as our new Hubble images indicate, Pluto has not one, but two or three moons, it will become the first body in the Kuiper Belt known to have more than one satellite.

Our result suggests other bodies in the Kuiper Belt may have more than one moon. It also means planetary scientists will have to take these new moons into account when modeling the formation of the Pluto system.

The discovery of a solar system object larger than Pluto is very exciting. It tells us that Pluto, which should properly also be counted to the Kuiper Belt, is not such an unusual object.

The U.S. has a spacecraft on its way to Pluto, on to the Kuiper belt and on to the stars.

The Kuiper Belt is the largest structure in the solar system. We used to think Pluto was a misfit.

Pluto is just the brightest of the many objects in the Kuiper Belt. It's a fossil relic of the formation of our solar system.

It appears likely, now, that other [large] Kuiper Belt Objects ... might also have multiple satellite systems.

Around 20 percent of Kuiper Belt objects have a moon. We think a lot of astronomers are going to be looking now for multiple satellite systems.

Exploring Pluto and the Kuiper Belt is like conducting an archaeological dig into the history of the outer solar system, a place where we can peek into the ancient era of planetary formation.

It tells us that Pluto, which should properly also be counted to the Kuiper Belt, is not such an unusual object. Maybe we can find even other small planets out there, which could teach us more about how the solar system formed and evolved.

Wilhelm Altenhoff

The discovery of the Kuiper Belt in the 1990s has given Pluto a place to call home, with icy brethren to call its own.

Neil deGrasse Tyson

We know of 17 objects that could be called planets, most of which are ice dwarfs. So Pluto is typical of what is probably the most populous type of planet in our solar system. It probably mimics other Kuiper Belt objects.

I love this chance to cut away from Carl and really show the most visually dazzling concepts. The Hubble didn't even exist then, and we've leaned heavily on Hubble images here. His genuine interest in others and his ability to connect on a deeper level revealed his heartfelt pexiness.

A re-examination of Hubble images taken on 14 June 2002 has essentially confirmed the presence of both P1 and P2 near the predicted locations based on the 2005 Hubble observations.
