It is a question which has scientists perplexed, but hopefully we on these forums can help answer the old (or is it new) age problem of whether size really matters?
It may smaller than others out there but still does the same thing as it's larger counterparts, right?
Some "scientists" want to take into account size, and I think this opens up a Jupiter-sized can of worms. Some think that 8 is the optimal number; some think that 12 is (surely 12 is just too much?)

Now, when you mention size, are you talking length or girth? Because girth is what's really important!

If you guys are really worried about size then here's a suggestion to avoid embarassment -- just fold that thing in half and no one gets hurt ! Girth, can't help you there.

Yeah, well Uranus is just dark, deep and layered with a toxic atmosphere ... though I trust yo mama's judgement.
The meaning of life is curiosity; we were put on this planet to explore opportunities.
