The former planet Pluto, named for the Roman god of the Underworld, was discovered in 1930 by [[American]] astronomer Clive Tombaugh. In 2006, the International Astronomers Union demoted Pluto from the status of a planet to that of a minor planet. Pluto has at least three moons, the largest of which is Charon.
