Pluto and Charon's Cosmic Tango
A new University of Arizona study reveals that Pluto and its moon Charon performed a billion-year-old “kiss and capture” collision, challenging traditional moon formation theories. Instead of smashing to smithereens, the icy duo briefly stuck together before settling into their current orbit.
This unique event, dating back 4.5 billion years, hints at possible subsurface oceans on Pluto and may shed light on other Kuiper Belt binaries. Talk about a cosmic love story with a twist!
