Wednesday, 08 January 2025 07:31
New research from the University of Arizona reveals that Pluto and its largest moon, Charon, likely formed through a unique "kiss and capture" event. Unlike previous theories that compared their formation to Earth's Moon, the study suggests that two icy bodies collided, briefly stuck together, and then separated to form the binary system we observe today.
