A double planetoid is a celestial body that consists of two objects that are gravitationally bound to each other, typically of similar size. These objects orbit around their common center of mass, which is located outside of either object if they are of comparable size. Double planetoids can also be considered a subtype of binary systems, specifically in the category of small Solar System bodies such as asteroids or Kuiper Belt objects.
