    You should watch the companion video "star size comparison hd top 10 comments". He has some pretty cool junk in there.

    Probably the dwarf planets found in the Kuiper belt where Pluto is located (Eris, Makemake, and Haumea). Although not including Ceres in between Mars and Jupiter makes no sense if they're including the other dwarfs.

    That's true, they only included Earth's moon, but Jupiter's Ganymede and Saturn's Titan are both larger than Mercury, and Pluto's Charon is large enough to be included (scientist's are still arguing whether or not to reclassify Charon as a dwarf planet, and it's been argued for years that Pluto and Charon form a binary planetary system), so why not include them in the picture? It doesn't make any logical sense to leave them all out.

    There are actually 7 moons in the solar system that are larger than Pluto, including Ganymede and Titan. Those larger than Pluto but smaller than Mercury include our moon and also Jupiter's Callisto, Io, and Europa, and Neptune's Triton... so those 4 should probably be in the picture too.

    I would assume they included only our moon because it's something that everyone is familiar with and we see it every night.

    That's discrimination against other moons of the solar system. What are you going to do next? Make them sit at the back of the bus?

    and showing every moon of various sizes would be confusing when compared to some of the planets...it's the size thing. They'd have to label each entry

    Titania is Uranus' largest moon.

    The largest ones. It's definitely not exhaustive considering both Jupiter and Saturn have greater than 60 each.
