Eris and Dysnomia
Eris and Dysnomia. Artwork of the dwarf planet Eris, seen from its moon Dysnomia (lower right). Eris was formerly called 2003 UB313, and was nicknamed Xena by its discoverers, and its moon was nicknamed Gabrielle. Eris is thought to be around 3000 kilometres across, which is slightly larger than Pluto. It takes 560 years to orbit the Sun. Eris is the largest known member of the Kuiper Belt of rocky, icy bodies, including Pluto, that orbit the Sun beyond Neptune. The discovery was made from observations made in 2003 at the Palomar Observatory, USA, by Mike Brown, Chad Trujillo and David Rabinowitz, and announced in July 2005. Dysnomia was observed in September 2005

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic dwarf planet Eris, as seen from its moon Dysnomia. Formerly known as 2003 UB313 and affectionately nicknamed Xena by its discoverers, Eris is a fascinating celestial body in our vast solar system. With a diameter of approximately 3000 kilometers, it surpasses Pluto in size and holds the title of being the largest known member of the Kuiper Belt. The artwork beautifully captures Eris' rocky surface, adorned with craters that bear witness to its ancient history. Its icy composition adds an ethereal touch to this monochrome image, reminding us of the mysterious nature of these distant worlds beyond Neptune. Eris takes an astonishing 560 years to complete one orbit around the Sun, making it a true cosmic wanderer. Discovered in July 2005 through observations made at Palomar Observatory by Mike Brown, Chad Trujillo, and David Rabinowitz, this finding marked a significant milestone in planetary science. Dysnomia accompanies Eris on its journey through space and was first observed in September 2005. Together they form an intriguing duo within our ever-expanding knowledge of the universe. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity about what lies beyond our own planet. It invites us to ponder upon the wonders that await discovery amidst countless other objects inhabiting our awe-inspiring cosmos.
