This is meant to be an Otaku Senshi aid! There are a lot of celestial objects that simply do not have Sailors that exist in Sailor Moon canon, but they are objects that exist IRL. Some celestial bodies weren't discovered until after Sailor Moon had already finished airing. Some were discovered long before any of us where even born. Either way they make more kick-a** Sailors then something that has nothing to do with astronomy at all

The Sun
This Sailor is pretty well covered in fanon at large, but oh well! I'll use this section to explain more about this list. I'll be listing the largest objects our solar system has to offer along with other significant objects and items that inhabit our nightly skies. All the little numbers are the radius of those objects in kilometers. In other words if you were to cut that object in half and walk from the middle of the core to the edge of that object, that would be the radius. Double that number would be the diameter a.k.a. how long that object is. 1 kilometer = .62 miles.
(696,000) Sun
The Planets
Well these are pretty much covered in Sailor Moon canon but oh well they're here for completion. (We're not getting into any Sailor Earth debates here!)
(69,911) Jupiter
(58,232) Saturn
(25,362) Uranus
(24,622) Neptune
(6,371) Earth
(6,051) Venus
(3,390) Mars
(2,439) Mercury

Official Dwarf Planets
Okay here we get to some actual potential otaku senshi fuel. Pluto and Ceres already have canon Sailors, but none of the other objects on this list do. Dwarf planets in general are not very well studied. This will hopefully change with the New Horizons mission, set to arrive at Pluto in 2015.
(1,163) Eris
(1,161) Pluto
(739) Makemake
(650) Haumea
(471) Ceres
Unofficial Dwarf Planets
So what's the difference between official and unofficial dwarf planets? Nothing. They just haven't been studied a lot and haven't been officially classified yet. Still there are several scientists that back up these items as being dwarf planets and assume they will be classified as such in the future. Unfortunately three still do not have official names. There are MANY more candidates, but these are the largest and most other candidates don't have names.
(640) 2007 OR10
(575) 2002 TC302
(497) Sedna
(467) 2002 MS4
(452) Salacia
(445) Quaoar
(380) Orcus

Large Moons a.k.a. Satellite Planets
So what are these things? These are the largest moons in our solar system that are round in shape. They've been compared to planets and dwarf planets, but are set apart because they don't orbit the sun. Still they are very significant in size and one in particular is essential to life on Earth. Interestingly enough that's the only one with a canon Sailor Soldier ~ dramallama
