Eris is a slow moving dwarf planet (560 year cycle) that disrupted the astronomical community in 2005 because they didn’t know how she should be classified – as a planet or asteroid?

This created a huge controversy ultimately demoting Pluto from a Planet to a Dwarf Planet – a new classification sparked by the discovery of Eris.

Interestingly this equalized Pluto and Eris both now considered dwarf planets. More is shared in the audio below.
