I can remember when the only planets known to have satellites were Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.

That was many moons ago.

Pluto has 5 natural satellites and it’s not a planet.

From that picture I counted at least 100 other “moons”. Moon is defined as a “natural satellite around a planet”.

Pluto may be a dog but he aint’ no planet, at least according the same guys.

Five moons, but not a planet. No respect, I tell you.
