Enjoy this simple educational comparison of 10 biggest moons of our Solar System and comparison of 8 Planets of the Solar System. Our Planet Earth has just one moon, but some planets have dozens of them. Others don’t have any. Which planets have moons, and which don’t?
Let’s go in order from the Sun. 🌙🌖🪐🌎🔭
Start with Mercury and Venus. Neither of them has a moon. Up next is Earth, and of course we have one moon. Mars has two moons. Their names are Phobos and Deimos. Next are the giant outer planets. They have lots of moons. Jupiter, for instance, has 95 known moons! As of June 8, 2023, Saturn has 146 moons. And that’s not counting Saturn’s beautiful rings! Uranus has 28 known moons that we know of. Some of them are half made of ice. Lastly, Neptune has 16 known moons. One of Neptune's moons, Triton, is as big as dwarf planet Pluto. The smallest planet in the Solar System is Mercury, next one in size is Mars, Venus is much bigger, our Earth is almost the same size, next one is a giant Neptune, Uranus is a little bigger, then Saturn, and biggest planet of the Solar System is Jupiter. However all the planets are small babies when you see how huge the Sun is!
And let's compare 10 biggest moons of our Solar System. Kids will see moons, can compare them, their diameter and the planets to orbit around.
Excellent for the preschool, kindergarten or elementary school lessons.

How to learn the order of the planets?
Just remember:
My Mercury
Very Venus
Educated Earth
Mom Mars
Just Jupiter
Served Saturn
Us Uranus
Nachos Neptune
But where is Pluto? Pluto is a dwarf planet in the Kuiper belt, a ring of bodies beyond Neptune. Pluto was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh in 1930 and was originally considered to be the ninth planet from the Sun. Pluto is very small, only about half the width of the United States, that's the main reason why Pluto was relegated to "dwarf-planet" status by the International Astronomical Union in 2006.
=====================================
According to the NASA/JPL Solar System Dynamics team, the current tally of moons orbiting planets in our solar system is 293: One moon for Earth; two for Mars; 95 at Jupiter; 146 at Saturn; 28 at Uranus; 16 at Neptune; and five for dwarf planet Pluto.
