  • Charon's Orbit: Understanding Pluto's Moon and Binary System
    The orbital period of Charon around Pluto is 6.387 days.

    It's important to note that because Charon and Pluto are a binary system, they actually orbit around a common center of mass. This center of mass lies outside of Pluto itself, which is why Pluto and Charon are sometimes referred to as a "double dwarf planet".
