Technically, [[Neptune]], [[Pluto]], and [[Eris]] are in violation of the Titius-Bode Law. Remarkably, however, that law holds for all of the planets (plus the dwarf planet [[Ceres]]) ''inside'' of Neptune. And in the case of Pluto and Eris, those "violations," such as they are, are remarkably "regular." These are not the numbers of the random assortment of distances that one would expect from the [[nebula hypothesis]] of the formation of the sun and its satellites. Rather, these numbers suggest a catastrophic event in the distant past that altered the orbit of Neptune and either (a) also altered the orbits of Pluto and Eris, or else (b) injected those two dwarf planets into orbits that, while violative of the Titius-Bode Law, were nevertheless semi-regular. That the orbits of Pluto and Eris are the most steeply inclined of all the orbits of the satellites of the Sun (except for [[comets]]) is further suggestive evidence of catastrophe.
