Did you know that Pluto, which is no longer a planet, has two three moons orbiting it? Charon, Nix and Hydra. I am not sure if I can really call them moons now since Pluto is no longer a planet. I guess the best word for them would be objects and they probably don't deserve to actually have a name. I guess they all form the multiplanetary body of Pluto, since they are all oribiting in the trans-neptunian belt together. Eitherway, the below pages provide some interesting reading:
