Natural satellite achieved hydrostatic equilibrium, and Uranus has five. It has been suggested that some satellites may potentially harbour life. Among the identified dwarf planets, Ceres has no known natural satellites. Pluto has the relatively large natural satellite Charon and four smaller natural satellites; Styx, Nix, Kerberos, and Hydra. Haumea has two natural satellites, and Eris and Makemake have one each. The Pluto–Charon system is unusual in that the center of mass lies in open space between the two, a characteristic sometimes associated with a double-planet system. The seven largest natural satellites in the Solar System (those bigger than 2,500 km across)
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
