My dear Brothers, have you ever thought about how many moons are there in our solar system?
Nearly, 200+
But the main point is: do you know which is the biggest? (List of 10 biggest moons)
Ganymede moon if Jupiter. You can understand this simply by this example.
If Ganymede starts orbiting then it would be a planet but it is bigger than mercury and has very little difference from mars.
This is one of the 10 facts about different moons. You can others also: Here.
Huh? English must not be this writers 1st language.
Ganymede already starting orbiting Jupiter about 4+ billion years ago
Pluto tried that ... then got demoted by a bunch of “decision makers of the Universe.”
You know there’s a ring around Uranus?
Name is “Devansh” which looks Indian (kameltoe not fauxahauntis). The English style looks that way as well.
I did not much like working with Indians for many reasons but always liked the term “please do the needful by (date)” and borrowed it. Very efficient phrase.
Ganymede?.......................
Those dirty rings! You try soaking and scrubbing but....
I thought you got zotted long ago.
Fun fact about Jupiter’s moons.
At the same time Galileo discovered them, Jupiter was passing real close to Neptune. When Galileo saw Jupiter’s moon’s in his scope he no doubt also saw Neptune. Though Neptune was probably too small in his early telescope and wasn’t moving as fast as Jupiter and its moons, so Galileo probably just assumed it was just another star and overlooked it.
But it’s pretty amazing that Galileo could have discovered Neptune 250+ years before Uranus.
Sigh... Back in the day the world was a better place... when Pluto was a planet.
Never mind. I see you are the latest person on the Hit and Run clickbait Ping List. Time to break it out again.
I’ll keep it short. There is a FReepathon in progress. How about a donation to help offset the expense of your incoherent spam and to help support FR?

Actually Neptune was 6th Magnitude, and Galileo sketched it. It appeared to him to be a not very bright star. The Galilean moons are all about 6th magnitude, and on the threshold of naked eye visibility. They are difficult to discern without optical aid (telescope or binoculars) because of their proximity to bright (about -2 magnitude, more than 1,000 times brighter.) A few years ago Neptune and Jupiter were in the same relative position, and easily observable in binoculars. Neptune is not hard to see in binoculars, it is hard to recognize as a planet.
The biggest moon I ever saw was the behind of a Code Pink protestor in Washington, DC.
