From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Moon, Io, and Earth shown to scale. Although significantly smaller, some of the Solar System's moons and dwarf planets share similarities to Earth's density and temperature.

No exomoons have been discovered yet.[1] This list includes moons and dwarf planets of the Solar System. Earth is included for comparison.

ESI does not necessarily correlate directly with habitability, as it does not account for all known major influences of habitability, such as magnetospheric integrity and photospheric activity.[2]

Table

[edit]

This table also includes non-planetary objects such as dwarf planets and asteroids.
