Scifi writer Larry Niven called this years ago. Pluto was a moon of Neptune until it was hit by a runaway alien spaceship.

There probably won’t be much of an update until the New Horizons flyby in 2015. There is little observation of Pluto going on right now — we are too busy looking for Kuiper Belt objects in Pluto’s general direction that New Horizons can fly by after it passes Pluto.
