The moons of the trans-Neptunian objects (other than Charon) have not been included, because they appear to follow the normal situation for TNOs rather than the moons of Saturn and Uranus, and become solid at a larger size (900–1000 km diameter, rather than 400 km as for the moons of Saturn and Uranus).
This list contains a selection of objects 50 and 99 km in radius (100 km to 199 km in average diameter). The listed objects currently include most objects in the asteroid belt and moons of the giant planets in this size range, but many newly discovered objects in the outer Solar System are missing, such as those included in the following ...
The Uranian atmosphere can be divided into three layers: the troposphere, between altitudes of −300 and 50 km (−186 and 31 mi) and pressures from 100 to 0.1 bar (10 MPa to 10 kPa); the stratosphere, spanning altitudes between 50 and 4,000 km (31 and 2,485 mi) and pressures of between 0.1 and 10 −10 bar (10 kPa to 10 μPa); and the ...

The kilometre (SI symbol: km) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 1 000 meters (10 3 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude , this section lists lengths between 1 kilometer and 10 kilometers (10 3 and 10 4 meters ).

The InSight mission to Mars launched with a C 3 of 8.19 km 2 /s 2. [5] The Parker Solar Probe (via Venus) plans a maximum C 3 of 154 km 2 /s 2. [6] Typical ballistic C 3 (km 2 /s 2) to get from Earth to various planets: Mars 8-16, [7] Jupiter 80, Saturn or Uranus 147. [8] To Pluto (with its orbital inclination) needs about 160–164 km 2 /s 2.

The sizes are listed in units of Jupiter radii (R J, 71 492 km).This list is designed to include all planets that are larger than 1.6 times the size of Jupiter.Some well-known planets that are smaller than 1.6 R J (17.93 R 🜨 or 114 387.2 km) have been included for the sake of comparison.
