Solar System (supplementary nomination)

This topic is already featured. It is being re-nominated to add additional items. See Wikipedia talk:Featured topics/Solar System for discussions of the topic's previous nominations. The additional items are:

  1. Io
  2. Europa
  3. Ganymede
  4. Callisto
  5. Titan
  6. Triton
Main page Articles
Solar System Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Moon, Mars, Ceres, Asteroid belt, Jupiter, Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto, Saturn, Titan, Uranus, Neptune, Triton, Pluto, Kuiper belt, Eris, Scattered disc, Oort cloud

These six featured articles represent a large segment of the Solar System's geography. The "big seven" moons, as astronomers call them, fill a "mass gap" in the Solar System between the planets and the dwarf planets. The smallest big moon, Triton, is larger than all the smaller moons put together. These moons are also highly evolved worlds in their own right, with weather, complex geology, and the possibility of life. This nomination also gives a reason for the Moon to be included that is more than historical. Serendipodous 09:14, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
