Memorizing Moons

@whoever mentioned memorizing pi;
I have memorized a few hundred (i think my peak was 374, now I could probly do 160-200) and honestly it isn't very useful and is only mediocre practice for other memorization type tasks. Plus you can measure the circumference of the known universe within an electron with under 50 digits.
 
I mentioned pi. At my peak I had 208, but now I only remember 3.14159265358979323864 (or is it 846?).
 
So, Wikipedia states that each moon has a "Label" and an "Order".

For instance, Neptune's moon Triton is Ordered "7" but labeled as "Neptune I". The label is based on the date of discovery, so Triton is the 7th moon of Neptune but was discovered first (I is the roman numeral 1).

I mentioned pi. At my peak I had 208, but now I only remember 3.14159265358979323864 (or is it 846?).

Ok so update: I am going to memorize EVERYTHING that is on this table. The blank space is where Jupiter and Saturn is going to be (not done yet).

So Wikipedia states that "Jupiter has 63 confirmed moons, giving it the largest retinue of moons with "reasonably secure" orbits of any planet in the Solar System." So I assumed that Jupiter has the most moons. Saturn only has 61, but 6 is divided into 6a and 6b, 14 is divided into 14, 14a and 14b, and 17 is divided into 17, 17a and 17b. If each was counted as seperate moon, Saturn would have 66 which is 3 more than Jupiter. In conclusion, Saturn has more orbiting bodies than Jupiter (that we know of) but Jupiter has more satelite orbits.
 
Ok, so my previous statement is false, I wasn't looking properly. The moons of Saturn are labeled "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6a, 6b, 8" because the 6b is treated as 7.
 
Update, I just realized how intense this is, almost finished table:
