Lyrics:
The 4th dwarf planet from our Sun
And I am the reddest one
Named after the God of Creation
I’m Makemake

Discovered in 2005
Also called 2005 FY9
The Kuiper Belt is where I reside
I’m Makemake

One day on me is 22 and a half hours
Similar to days on Earth and Mars
One year is 305 Earth Years
That’s a long time for this small sphere

It takes over 6 hours for Sun’s light to reach me
Because I’m over 4 billion miles away you see)
If the Sun’s light went out, I wouldn’t know for over 6 hours! Scary!
I’m Makemake

So far from the Sun, it isn’t sunny
Discovered around Easter, and this is funny
I was nicknamed Easter Bunny
I’m Makemake

Named for a God of Easter Island’s Rapa Nui
From Polynesian mythology
He was the creator of humanity
He’s Makemake

I have one moon, MK2 with me
Discovered by Hubble in 2016
It’s about 100 miles wide and much darker than me
I’m 1,300 times brighter than my little moon you see
Some astronomers think I have a second moon that’s hiding…
Maybe….

I’m Makemake

I have an inclined orbit you see
It tilts about 29 degrees
Haumea orbits just like me
I’m Makemake

It’s extremely cold on me
Temperatures as Low as -406 degrees
If you visited, you would freeze!
BRRRR! I’m Makemake

I don’t have an atmosphere
Even though scientists thought there was one here
I was observed passing in front of a star, you see
Which showed there is no atmosphere around me
But I have craters as far as the eye can see
It’s crazy
I’m Makemake

Discovered in 2005
Similar to Pluto but 2/3 the size
The Kuiper Belt is where I thrive
I’m Makemake

Michael E. Brown and his team
Are the ones who discovered me
From the Palomar Observatory
I’m Easter Bunny

The discovery of Haumea, Eris and I
Led to Pluto being reclassified
We’re like planets, but not quite the same
So, scientists decided to give us another name
Dwarf Planets is now our own special category
We haven’t cleared all the space debris…

I’m Makemake

The 4th dwarf planet from our Sun
And I am the reddest one
Named after the God of Creation
I’m Makemake

Discovered in 2005
Also called 2005 FY9
The Kuiper Belt is where I reside
I’m Makemake

I’m the second brightest object in the Kuiper Belt
I’m covered in methane and ethane ice that doesn’t melt
Making me red in color with a reflective bright surface
Look for me with your telescope, I’m small, but nevertheless
I’m sure to Impress
I’m Makemake
