III. NIX (PLUTO Sound Compilation Series) (PLT048)

7 videos • 324 views • by PLUTO Sound Third instalment of a five-part compilation series based around Pluto's moons and their Greek mythological names, celebrating the first five years of PLUTO Sound. Nix is a natural satellite of Pluto, probably pulled by the dwarf planet’s gravity. Nix is the third moon of Pluto by distance, orbiting between the moons Styx and Kerberos. Nix was named after Nyx, the Greek goddess of darkness and night and mother of Charon, the ferryman of Hades in Greek mythology. The two newly named moons were intentionally named that the order of their initials N and H honors the New Horizons mission to Pluto. Nyx is the Greek goddess (or personification) of the night. A shadowy figure, Nyx stood at or near the beginning of creation and mothered other personified deities such as Hypnos (Sleep) and Thanatos (Death), with Erebus (Darkness). Her appearances are sparse in surviving mythology, but reveal her as a figure of such exceptional power and beauty that she is feared by Zeus himself.
