	Unless you happen to know the size of all of the planets and moons anyway, I doubt that would help.

	What about Pluto's "moon", Charon?

	I liked it. You don't have to know the absolute sizes (I don't), just relative ones plus the list of biggest moons, dwarf planets and some trivia (like there are some moons bigger then Mercury)

	Should accept "Luna" for "Moon." Good quiz!

	I have no diea about the solar system and even I found this interesting, therefore it must be a good quiz!

	GPB, I doubt you could picture objects of that size even if they were in miles. It's just for comparison, so the units don't matter.

	Nearly half of quiz-takers didn't get the moon? Wow.

	Great quiz, I missed a few that I had guessed for other sizes and forgot about them!

	What about Deimos and Phobos? Or is this just the top such and suches?

	@Jay Hank: Not big enough. Anyways, loved this quiz. NOMINATED QUIZ!

	You should re-name this "Can you name the largest objects in the solar system?" There are a ton of other named objects, between all the moons, and asteroids out there.

	@Morrigan - the diameter falls around 1200 km, so just off this list. Great quiz!

	Excellent quiz! Struggled with the last few, only missed Titania (Think i need to re-learn the moons of Uranus :P). Had a lot of fun with this quiz, top marks from me ;)

	@DRB: I genuinely didn't know the Moon was that big compared to everything else.

	The best solar system quiz I've seen yet.

	Makemake and Sedna could possibly end up on this list if they end up a bit bigger than we're guessing when we pin down their size better (current estimates put them around 1500 and 1450 km.) As for several others people mentioned: Charon is 1208 km, Ceres is 950 km, and Phobos and Deimos... well, they're 22 km and 12 km across, respectively.
