Uranus is huge, and full of dangerous gas.

Poor quiz, IMO. #3 - define "approximately". To me 15 is "approximately" 17.

#5 - I thought the quiz was about Neptune and Uranus, not Jupiter.

#9 - Unless they have discovered new rings in the past couple months, the answer should be 11.

Well, wolfpackw2, 'approximately' means "let's round it off to a whole number, instead of a large decimal number", and NOT "let's say that, providing it is within a radius of 10, it is correct".

wow! an expert in those two planets got only 7/10! Hmm... I guess I just got my memory so lousy these days and forgot some facts. I'll give you a fact: Uranus has 27 moons.... Have a good Day!

I agree Uranus has 27 moons but that was not one of the choices I got 9 out of 10 guess I need to learn more. I love questions on the planets.
