If the object is round and travels in an orbit around Neptune with other space objects, then this object is a moon, not a dwarf planet.

<h3>What is a natural satellite?</h3>

A natural satellite is a celestial body that moves around (orbit) a planet such as occurs with the Moon and the Earth planet.

In order to discover the nature of a celestial body scientists need to observe the orbit and the movement of these objects in space.

In conclusion, if the object is round and travels in an orbit around Neptune with other space objects, then this object is a moon, not a dwarf planet.

The snow melts gradually during the spring and summer when there is little precipitation. The melted snow runs off the mountains into rivers and streams that can be tapped by irrigation pumps. The snowmelt also sinks into the ground, replenishing underground aquifers that can be tapped by wells in the valleys where farming takes place.</span>
