'''Styx''' is the second presently known moon of Pluto. M. R. Showalter of the [[New Horizons mission|New Horizons]] Imaging Team discovered it in 2012. They were searching carefully for any stray object with which their robot rocket probe ''New Horizons'' might collide in its passage through the Plutonian system.
