Double planet arguing that Jupiter is a double star is "not" analogous to arguing Pluto-Charon is a double dwarf planet. The problem is that Jupiter is not even a star, or even a brown dwarf, and due to its low mass it is unable to achieve any form of fusion. Isaac Asimov suggested a distinction between planet–moon and double-planet structures based in part on what he called a "tug-of-war" value, which does not consider their relative sizes. This quantity is simply the ratio of the force exerted on the smaller body by the larger (primary) body to the force exerted on the
Atmosphere of Pluto it was possible to calculate its distance from Pluto's center. Subtracting the modern figure for the radius of Pluto, the result is a height of ; hence this "haze" is indistinguishable from the surface of Pluto. During later occultations (when the atmosphere of Pluto was already denser) this kink was absent. Another evidence of the haze was obtained in 2002 due to a new occultation. The stellar light which managed to reach Earth during the occultation (due to refraction in Pluto's atmosphere), demonstrated an increase of intensity with wavelength. This was interpreted as a reliable evidence of light scattering by
