Earth’s Moon has a diameter of 3,474 km and orbits at an average distance of 384,000 km. At that distance it subtends and angle just slightly larger than half a degree in Earth’s sky. Pluto’s moon Charon has a diameter of 1,186 km and orbits at a distance of 19,600 km from the dwarf planet. Compare the appearance of Charon in Pluto’s skies with the Moon in Earth’s skies. Describe where in the sky Charon would appear as seen from various locations on Pluto.
