Definition of planet In the original draft proposal, an exception was made for Pluto and its largest satellite, Charon, which possess a barycenter outside the volume of either body. The initial proposal classified Pluto–Charon as a double planet, with the two objects orbiting the Sun in tandem. However, the final draft made clear that, even though they are similar in relative size, only Pluto would currently be classified as a dwarf planet. However, some have suggested that the Moon nonetheless deserves to be called a planet. In 1975, Isaac Asimov noted that the timing of the Moon's orbit is in tandem with the
15810 Arawn resonance with Neptune, similarly to dwarf planet Pluto, the largest known plutino. It measures approximately in diameter, based on an absolute magnitude of 7.6, and estimated albedo of 0.1. In April 2016, a rotation period of 5.47 hours was determined for this minor planet. In 2012, Arawn was hypothesized to be in a quasi-satellite loop around Pluto, as part of a recurring pattern, becoming a Plutonian quasi-satellite every 2 Myr and remaining in that phase for nearly 350,000 years. Measurements made by the "New Horizons" probe in 2015 made it possible to calculate the motion of Arawn much more accurately.
