Default Re: OT: Ceres more interesting than previously tho

Interesting...thanks for the link.

At 580 miles diameter, Ceres makes a mighty small planet, and size-wise it's more like many planetary moons. But I suppose, being that it's in orbit around the sun rather than one of the planets, it might qualify. The question then becomes: How big is big enough?
