Eris. Computer artwork of the dwarf planet Eris, formerly known as 2003 UB313 or Xena. Eris is the largest dwarf planet. A dwarf planet is defined as an object large enough to be spherical due to its gravity, and with an independent orbit around the sun (ie. not a satellite of a planet). A true planet has to dominate its orbit around the Sun. Eris fails because it is one of many Kuiper Belt objects in the outer solar system. Pluto is composed of rock and ice

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic dwarf planet Eris, previously known as 2003 UB313 or Xena. With its intricate computer artwork, it offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the vastness of our solar system. Eris holds the distinction of being the largest dwarf planet, characterized by its spherical shape resulting from gravitational forces and an independent orbit around the Sun. While not classified as a true planet due to its location within the Kuiper Belt, Eris remains an intriguing celestial body in our cosmic neighborhood. Composed of rock and ice like its fellow Kuiper Belt objects, this sphere challenges our understanding of planetary science and cosmology. The image's stunning portrayal captures Eris' unique features with remarkable precision. Its spherical form dominates the frame against a backdrop of stars, emphasizing both its individuality and place within our solar system's grand tapestry. As we explore further into space, images like these remind us of humanity's insatiable curiosity about what lies beyond Earth. This awe-inspiring photograph is courtesy of Science Photo Library – a testament to their commitment to capturing scientific wonders through visual artistry. Whether you're an astronomy enthusiast or simply captivated by space exploration, this striking print invites you on a journey through time and space that will leave you pondering the mysteries that lie beyond our home planet.
