Memorizing Moons

[miniGOINGS]

I was just wondering if anyone had every tried to memorize the names of all of the moons in are solar system. I am going to attempt this, and have learned a lot about the Solar System already. One of my ideas is to name certain algorithms with the name of the Satelites as to make it easier. Any ideas or tips or anything?

Tip: Don't memorize! Learn algorithms! If you want to "memorize" then learn ZBLL.

Haha but I want to know the names anyway, so I might as well do it with algorithms I guess.

 

[piemaster]

Algorithms? How do you intend on doing that? How many moons are there anyway...

167 planetary moons, 6 dwarf planetary moons for a total of 173.

167 known planetary moons, 6 known dwarf planetary moons for a total of 173 known moons in the solar system.

Correct? Anyway, memorize the periodic table and pi first, they're way more useful. And will you count Charon as a moon, seeing as pluto is now not a planet (except for in New Mexico)?

 

[piemaster]

All pi is good for is the nth number thingamajig. Will you ever need that in real life?

Thank you for the correction. I already have memorized most of the periodic table, and the first 50 decimal places of pi. And Charon, Nix, and Hydra (the moons of Pluto) are 3 of the 6 dwarf planetary moons that I mentioned.

I'll assume you mean our? And did you make this topic because of the LCROSS topic ?

Yes I did, sorry I'm having an off day as of I'm sick so my grammer isn't quite up to par. What do you mean by the LCROSS topic?

You know, the other one about the moon.

EDIT: Oh, and don't worry about having perfect grammar 100% of the time; we all make mistakes, it's cool man

Once you've been a planet FOREVER(!!!) and have been taught as such from early childhood and through many generations, this: once you're a planet like Pluto, you won't just be demoted!
Once a planet, always a planet.

Saying the planets and stopping at Neptune just won't cut it.
Saying there are 8 planets won't cut it, NINE.

It may officially not be a planet (except under special events in NM), most people (actually idk ) will still refer to it and believe in it as a PLANET. A PLANET!

YES YES YES

anyway, do you happen to be the WEB over at smogon (sorry for slight topic hijack-ation)

I don't see a point in memorizing moons
imo memorizing world capitals would be better

Haha that is interesting. Yea, I just wanted to thank you for correcting me.

Wait, you made this topic without seeing that one? Creepy...

Haha funny story about that. While on a school bus for 7 hours, my friend said "I know all of the capitals of the world, ask me a country!". After about 50 or so, we believed that she knew them all so I said "I'm going to memorize the names of all of the moons in our Solar System". This is a true story that happened about 3 days ago. No joke.

I would rather memorize 1LLL algs......

Yea, but a non-cuber wouldn't really be able to tell the difference between a 2LLL solve and a 1LLL solve, especially if it was done fast. Being able to remember and recite the names of all of the moons would be (I think) incredible.

Thank You for the triple YES!!!es <-- grammer.

No, that's no me, I don't even know what smogon is XD.
Obviously WEB would be a common name on the worldwideWEB, but I'm special: WEB is my initials. Therefore, IamWEB. <---good grammar, lol.

Yes, that's odd.

Ok, too many coincidences for one thread. rly
