In the end stages of planet formation, a planet will have “cleared the neighbourhood” of its own orbital zone, meaning it has become gravitationally dominant, and there are no other bodies of comparable size other than its own satellites or those otherwise under its gravitational influence. A large body which meets the other criteria for a planet but has not cleared its neighbourhood is classified as a dwarf planet. This includes Pluto, which shares its orbital neighbourhood with Kuiper belt objects such as the plutinos. The IAU’s definition does not attach specific numbers or equations to this term, but the extent to which all the planets have cleared their neighbourhoods is much greater, by any measure, than that of any dwarf planet or any candidate for dwarf planet known so far.

What is a Trans-Neptunian Object (TNO) Plutoid?… Any object orbiting the sun beyond Neptune are called ‘Trans-Neptunian Objects’. When it’s a Dwarf Planet orbiting beyond Neptune, it’s then called a ‘Plutoid’. I will be making a video about this in the future. I didn’t find alot of interesting facts about Dysnomia, however here is a few links to websites with facts about Eris’s moon, Dysnomia: www.absoluteastronomy.com en.wikipedia.org If you know anything interesting about these dwarf planets, feel free to share them in the comments! 🙂 Please rate, comment and subby!! xx
