Smile An easy way to remember the names of planets

Help with those planet names Easy way to remember the planets' namesThose having trouble remembering the newly assigned 11 planets, including three dwarfs, can thank a fourth-grader in Montana, United States. Maryn Smith, the winner of the National Geographic planetary mnemonic contest, has created a handy way to remember the plants with the phrase: My Very Exciting Magic Carpet Just Sailed Under Nine Palace Elephants. The recognised planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Ceres, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Eris. Ceres, Pluto and Eris are considered dwarf planets.

Default Re: An easy way to remember the names of planets

Compared to earlier version :

"My Very Educated Mentor Just Shows Us Nine Planets."

it is a bit difficult, even though if one remembers this and the one such as :

Magic Carpet and Palace Elephant from Aladin

it might be easier.

Pouring in!
