Styx isn’t just your favorite rock group from the ’70s, it’s also the name of Pluto’s fifth moon, discovered by the Hubble Space Telescope a decade ago! This video shows the motion of Pluto's five moons as photographed by Hubble in 2012. At the time, Styx was named “P5” before receiving a slightly creepy new moniker. All of Pluto's moons are named for mythological figures associated with the underworld. Credit: NASA, ESA, M. Showalter (SETI Institute), and L. Frattare, and G. Bacon (STScI). | Hu

Hubble Finds Two Chaotically Tumbling Pluto Moons This computer animation illustrates how Pluto's moon Nix changes its spin unpredictably as it orbits the "double planet" Pluto-Charon. The view is from the surface of Pluto as the moon circles the Pluto-Charon system. This is a time-lapse view of the moon, compressing four years of motion into two minutes, with one complete orbit of Pluto-Charon every two seconds. (The apparent star movement rate is greatly slowed down for illustration purposes.)

Pluto's moment to shine! 10 years ago today, after travelling more than 3 billion miles, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft made its closest approach to Pluto, passing within 7,800 miles of its surface, and providing humanity with the first close-up images of this distant world. The mission revealed Pluto's stunningly diverse landscapes including vast plains, towering mountains, and mysterious ice volcanoes, reshaping our view of the Pluto system! https://go.nasa.gov/3TtCNYk | NASA History
