Pluto has five moons. Io isn't one of them. (That's a moon of Jupiter; it's the innermost of the ones Galileo observed.) Pluto's moons: Charon, Nix, Hydra, Kerbaros, and Styx.
I'm sitting here at a physics conference, and the following thought occurred to me regarding the OP's moon:
If there's a crack on the surface of the moon, enough to gain a fingerhold, how much force would an 80kg person have to exert backwards in order to go into orbit around the moon with, say, a maximum altitude of 2 meters. (Assume a perfectly spherical moon of the same density as Earth's moon.)
