Double dwarf planets

 In our solar system , we have many dwarf planets.


I am talking about a celestial body which was once called planet but now it is a dwarf planet.


It is none other than   Pluto  !!!


Though Pluto is a dwarf planet, it has 5 moons  !!!


Largest of them is    Charon.


The same surfaces of Pluto and Charon always face each other.


This is called  mutual tidal locking.


These two are the double dwarf planets.
