[edit] Pronunciation

How do you pronounce this moon's name? In my ignorance, I thought it was a small 'el' instead of a capital "ai". A pronunciation guide for this and other strange names would make this book more usefull. Bounton 10:45, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] How wide?

Is this the diameter? For us non-scientific people and children, what is this on a practical scale? Maybe saying how many of these could fit inside the earth would be a help. Actually, this should be the standard for comparing the planets and moons. How many earths can fit in the larger planets and how many of the moons or smaller planets can fit inside the earth. I really think that would make this number come alive in a practical way. Bounton 10:51, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
