It is crucial to note that when Makemake blocked the star, it disappeared and reappeared very abruptly unlike other dwarf planets which fade and brighten gradually. This immediately indicate that the dwarf planet Makemake has no significant atmosphere. Experts have explained that Makemake's lack of nitrogen ice has led to its lack of atmosphere. Moreover, science and research have explained that since Makemake does not have anything for the sun to heat up on its surface, therefore, there is nothing to make up its atmosphere.
