| - Eris is one of the largest dwarf planets. It was very far away from the Sun, much farther than Neptune, Pluto, Haumea, and Makemake. It's classified as the Kuiper Belt object. It has one moon, Dysnomia. If you weight 100 lbs on Earth, you will weight only 17 lbs on Eris.
- Eris (pronounced /ˈɪərɨs/, or /ˈɛrɨs/ as in Greek Έρις),[a] formal designation 136199 Eris, is the second-largest known dwarf planet in the Solar System and the tenth-largest body known to orbit the Sun directly. It is approximately 2,368 kilometres in diameter and 27% more massive than Pluto.
- Eris is a dwarf planet in the outer Sol system, designated 136199. One of the first such bodies to be discovered by Humans, Eris' highly-inclined orbit meant that it spent part of its orbital period a significant distance from Sol and Earth. This remote location, along with Eris' relatively large size, proved to be perfect for the Federation Department of Temporal Investigations, which used the dwarf planet as the location of the Eridian Vault. Eris has one moon, Dysnomia, and was named for the ancient goddess of discord. (DTI novel: Watching the Clock)
- Eris (minor-planet designation 136199 Eris) is the most massive and second-largest dwarf planet known in the Solar System. It is also the ninth-most-massive known body directly orbiting the Sun, and the largest known body in the Solar System not visited by a spacecraft. It is measured to be in diameter. Eris is 27% more massive than dwarf planet Pluto, though Pluto is slightly larger by volume. Eris' mass is about 0.27% of the Earth's mass.
