Factual disputes[edit]

Moved the following comment from dab page (I could not determine whether or not this is an actual factual dispute; the contradictory note in the article—which I removed to here—makes it appear so):

There is no minor planet, asteroid, comet, or planet officially named Hades.

Please resolve this dispute here, and modify dab page as needed.

Synonyms[edit]

In Greek mythology, Hades was the name of (A) the god of the dead and/or (B) the abode of the dead. The Roman name for Hades was Pluto, therefore, the planet Pluto may inaccurately be called Hades.
