File:Ceres-Vesta-Eros compared to Pluto-Charon.jpg
Summary
The asteroids Ceres, Vesta, and Eros compared to the sizes of Pluto and its moon Charon. Ceres is by far the largest object found within the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/asteroid_belt" class="extiw" title="w:asteroid belt">asteroid belt</a>, and the only object within the region known to be in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/hydrostatic_equilibrium" class="extiw" title="w:hydrostatic equilibrium">hydrostatic equilibrium</a>. It is smaller and less massive than Charon. If all of the mass found within the asteroid belt were to be clumped together, it would be roughly twice as massive as Charon.
