Two small satellites orbit Haumea. In the Pluto system four small moons are orbiting the central binary of Pluto and Charon. The central bodies orbit each other around a point in space, the barycenter (the center of mass of the two bodies). Lempo is a fascinating trinary system which resembles the Pluto system.

Lempo got help from his two demon cohorts Hiisi and Paha. The Kalevala was compiled by Elias L\u00f6nnrot from Karelian and Finnish oral folklore and mythology. The first version of the Kalevala was published in 1835. Scholars still argue about how much of it is genuine folk poetry and how much is L\u00f6nnrot&#8217;s own work.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"fi-FI\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\">Originally, before the Christianization, Lempo was worshiped as the goddess of love and fertility.
