The New Horizons probe near 2014 MU69 - Artist's View - New Horizons and 2014 MU69 (binary) - Artwork: Artist's view of the New Horizons probe near the small object of Kuiper 2014 MU69. Observations in 2017 show that 2014 MU69 would be either a binary object (model favors), in contact or not, or a single object lengthens. Speculative illustration of Nasa's New Horizons interplanetary probe flying by classical Kuiper belt object (486958) 2014 MU69, about 3 billion miles from the Earth, on 1 January 2019. 2014 MU69 is either a single elongated object about 30 miles long, or two smaller objects orbiting very closely together, maybe even touching; this image illustrates the latter. New Horizons is about the size and shape of a grand piano and weighed 1,054 pounds at launch. The high-gain dish antenna is about 7 feet in diameter and is employed for communication with the Earth
Artist's view of the New Horizons probe and a Kuiper object - The New Horizons spacecraft near Kuiper Belt Object - Artist's view of the New Horizons probe approaching a Kuiper object. The Sun shines more than 6 billion km surrounded by a disc of dust. Jupiter and Neptune appear as two stars to the right of the Sun. The New Horizons probe was launched on 19 January 2006 to Jupiter, then Pluto and Charon, which it will reach in 2015 and Kuiper's objects in 2020. Artist's impression of the New Horizons spacecraft encountering a Kuiper Belt object. The Sun, more than 4.1 billion miles (6.7 billion kilometers) away, shines as a bright star embedded in the glow of the zodiacal dust cloud. Jupiter and Neptune are visible as orange and blue “” stars””” to the right of the Sun. Although you would not actually see the myriad other objects that make up the Kuiper Belt because they are so far apart, they are shown here to give the impression of an extensive disk of icy worlds beyond Neptune
The dwarf planet Eris - Illustration - Dwarf planet Eris - Artwork - Artist's view of the dwarf planet Eris and its satellite Dysnomia. Eris is about three times more distant from the Sun than Pluto. The dwarf planet, formerly known as 2003 UB313 (or Xena), is now called Eris, after the Greek goddess of discord and strife. This artist's concept shows the planet catalogued as 2003 UB313 with its moon Dysnomia. Our Sun can be seen in the distance. The new planet, which is yet to be formally named, is at least as big as Pluto and about three times farther away from the Sun than Pluto. It is very cold and dark. The planet was discovered by the Samuel Oschin Telescope at the Palomar Observatory near San Diego, Calif., on Jan. 8, 2005
New Horizons near 2014 MU69 - Artist's view - New Horizons near 2014 MU69 - Artwork - Artist's view of the New Horizons probe near the small object of Kuiper 2014 MU69. Artist's concept of the New Horizons spacecraft flying by a possible binary 2014 MU69 on Jan. 1, 2019. Early observations of MU69 hint at the Kuiper Belt object being either a binary orbiting pair or a contact (stuck together) pair of nearly like-sized bodies with diameters near 20 and 18 kilometers (12 and 11 miles)

The Transneptunien object 2007 OR10 - Illustration - Transneptunian Object 2007 OR10 - Artwork: (225088) 2007 OR10 is a Transneptunian object with a probable diameter of more than 1,000 km, making it a candidate for the status of a dwarf planet. It is the largest celestial body in the solar system that did not receive a name in 2016, it is also the third largest object known beyond Neptune. It has a satellite with a diameter of about 300 km - (225088) 2007 OR10 is a trans-Neptunian object (TNO) approximately 1500 kilometers in diameter. It is the third-largest known body in the Solar System beyond Neptune, and the largest known body in the Solar System without a name. According to current estimates as of May 2016, it is slightly larger than Makemake or Haumea, and is hence almost certainly a dwarf planet. It has one known moon
The dwarf planet Makemake - Illustration - Dwarf planet Makemake - Artwork - Makemake, (136472 Makemake), is the third largest known dwarf planet. It belongs to the Kuiper belt and was discovered in 2005. Its diameter is about two thirds that of Pluto, or 1,430 km. Makemake (minor-planet designation 136472 Makemake) is a dwarf planet and perhaps the largest Kuiper belt object with a diameter approximately two thirds that of Pluto. Makemake has one known satellite, S/2015 (136472). Makemake was discovered on March 31, 2005
Ring around the Dwarf Planet Haumea - Illustration - Ring around Dwarf Planet Haumea - Artwork - Haumea, (136108 Haumea), is a transneptunian dwarf planet (a plutoid) of the Solar System member of the Kuiper belt. Discovered in 2004, Haumea has two known natural satellites, a very fast rotation (less than 4 h), an ellipsoidal shape and a high albedo caused by water ice crystals on its surface. Haumea would measure between 1,960 and 2,500 km, barely less than Pluto and twice as much as Ceres, the smallest known dwarf planet. Haumea, minor-planet designation 136108 Haumea, is a dwarf planet located beyond Neptune's orbit. It was discovered in 2004 and was recognized as a dwarf planet in 2008. Haumea's mass is about one-third that of Pluto, it has an elongated shape with a rapid rotation and has two known moons, Hi iaka and Namaka
The dwarf planet Eris - Illustration - Dwarf planet Eris. Artwork - Artist's view of the dwarf planet Eris. Eris is about three times more distant from the Sun than Pluto. The dwarf planet, formerly known as 2003 UB313 (or Xena), is now called Eris, after the Greek goddess of discord and strife. This artist's concept shows the planet catalogued as 2003 UB313 at the lonely outer fringes of our solar system. Our Sun can be seen in the distance. The new planet, which is yet to be formally named, is at least as big as Pluto and about three times farther away from the Sun than Pluto. It is very cold and dark. The planet was discovered by the Samuel Oschin Telescope at the Palomar Observatory near San Diego, Calif., on Jan. 8, 2005
The dwarf planet Makemake - Illustration - Dwarf planet Makemake - Artwork: The solar system seen from the dwarf planet Makemake. Makemake (136472 Makemake) is the third largest known dwarf planet. It belongs to the Kuiper belt and was discovered in 2005. Its diameter is about two thirds that of Pluto, or 1,430 km - Solar system seen from Makemake - Makemake (minor-planet designation 136472 Makemake) is a dwarf planet and perhaps the largest Kuiper belt object with a diameter approximately two thirds that of Pluto. Makemake has one known satellite, S/2015 (136472). Makemake was discovered on March 31, 2005
