What a mysterious quiz

1. A - Astronomical Unit
2. I think you want the answer A, but I don't believe it's limited to moons. Perhaps saying satellite would be better.
3. C
4. Trick question - I thought there were 67 'official' moons.
5. D. But I suppose B before that..
6. A
7. B
8. A, also my ice cream is a substellar object.

Edit: I think you could also argue for 8B

The answer to 8 is none of the above. THERE is no correct answer, THEY'RE all wrong.

These things are always hard to do in the age of Google and other search engines. Too easy to find answers if you are cheating. I do trivia at bars sometimes and they ban cell phone usage...pretty fun.

So hopefully people answer solely based on their knowledge as you have some good questions in there.

Yeh, you can never really use them as a competition. But they're still fun to answer.

1. Astronomical Unit, A
2. A, though I admit I only know this one because of XKCD
3. C sounds like the right answer, IIRC Sirius is about 8 light-years away
4. B is the closest...
5. D sounds awesome, so why not?
6. A is the only one that sounds reasonable...
7. B, again, is the only one that sounds reasonable...
8. A, because, over there, there are substellar objects.

Honestly the joke answers and the significant difference in detail (for 5) make the answers easy to guess >.> Seriously, though, the correct answers seem to be waving flags that say "Hey, guys, I'm the right answer"

Another XKCD reader!

Yeh, you should limit joke/unrealistic answers to one per question and avoid giving extra detail to the correct answer as Riyamitie suggested.
