I made this one, and haven't really been able to think of who might want to take a swing at it... figured someone here might! Can you name the named moons of the planets and dwarf planets? Yes, this includes all the 2 km rocks swarming around Jupiter that have been given names. I've also made smaller quizzes for each of the gas giants' moons, they can be found under my profile, and are good for working your way up to the big quiz.
