Player #4018994, don't forget Mars! My very elegant mother just sat upon nine pins. I must have learned that 25 years ago. I guess it works!

From experience, we sang a song to remember their positions from mars to neptune. To the tune of "London Bridge" (Mercury, Venus, and Earth, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn, Uranus, Neptune~ the eight planets). I'm sad they didn't include Pluto.

Interestingly, Mercury is the closest to every planet in the solar system because of how fast it is.
