100

This planet is the coldest of all the rocky planets.

Mars

100

The most complex and prominent rings in the solar system belong to this planet.

Saturn

100

Upon its discovery, this dwarf planet was initially hailed as the Ninth Planet.

Pluto

100

Launched in October 1957, this space probe was the first man-made object to orbit the Earth

Sputnik 1

100

This is the closest moon to the Sun.

The Moon

200

This planet has more rovers than all others in the solar system combined.

Earth

200

This planet contains more mass than all the others in the solar system combined

Jupiter

200

This belt of icy objects is where most of the largest dwarf planets are found.

Kuiper Belt

200

This space probe, famously recovered by Mark Watney for communication purposes in The Martian, was the first to release a rover onto the Martian surface

Pathfinder

200

This largest moon of Saturn is the only moon in the solar system to possess a dense atmosphere.

Titan

300

This planet has a reputation for quickly destroying all probes sent to its surface.

Venus

300

The second most complex and prominent rings in the solar system, and the second to be discovered, belong to this planet.

Uranus

300

This space probe became the first to visit a dwarf planet in March of 2015

Dawn

300

A nuclear test in August 1957 launched this object upwards at tremendous speed, and assuming it didn't burn up in the atmosphere, possibly became the first man-made object to escape the Earth's gravity entirely.

Manhole cover / Sewer cover

300

This moon of Jupiter, the second most distant of the Galilean moons, is the only one to maintain a magnetic field.

Ganymede

400

This planet possesses the largest temperature range in the solar system

Mercury

400

All gas and ice giants in our solar system reside beyond this imaginary temperature-defined line.

Frost Line / Snow Line

400

This dwarf planet was the first to be discovered, and was found before the planet Neptune.

Ceres

400

This NASA space probe executed the first successful mission on the Martian surface

Viking 1 / Viking

400

Known for its retrograde orbit, this moon is the most massive of its kind in the outer solar system.

Triton

500

The planet Mars frequently passes close to this bright red star, which has a name originating from Greek meaning "Rival of Mars".

Antares

500

This planet was the first to have its position predicted by use of mathematics prior to first being observed.

Neptune

500

With its discovery, this dwarf planet, the most massive of its kind, ignited significant strife in the astronomical community which ultimately led to the creation of the dwarf planet category in 2006

Eris

500

This model of rocket, during a test in 1944, became the first man-made object to cross the Karman line and officially enter into outer space

V-2

500

This oft-forgotten moon is the most massive in orbit around the planet Uranus.

Titania
