Earth is number 1! Earth is number 1!

  No, no, I really think it’s something in Earth being way too high up on the list. Maybe if we tossed in the Galilean moons it would be better balanced. … Well, Io and Ganymede and Europa wouldn’t help but when have they ever? Callisto would give us something, though.
  
  You know there was like a whole century there when astronomers from France keep seeing a moon around Venus. There’s no reason this couldn’t be a Doctor Who episode.
