Neat Quiz About the Solar System

Recently, I’ve written a few articles about our solar system. I thought it might be sort of fun to have a quiz about the solar system, mostly about sizes of the bodies in it. This should help to gain some perspective on our solar system and about some of the planets and moons inside of it.

This isn’t designed to be a hard quiz, but we’ll see just how difficult it is.
