Probably a teacher-specific things too. I passed AP chem and didn’t have to memorize it.

It wasn’t many men either. Plate armor was incredibly expensive (it had to be custom made so the joins fit you correctly) and only the wealthiest nobles had it. There weren’t entire armies of knights in armor, that’s just fantasy.

Oops, right – Pluto and Charon are in the Kuiper Belt, not the Oort Cloud. I really shouldn’t mix those up.
I thought Haumea, Eris, and Makemake were solidly considered dwarf planets. But we don’t have good images of those, do we?

Did you ever have to memorize the periodic table? This would be a walk in the park by comparison, at least using the current dwarf planet definition.

I thought dwarf planets still had to be round, and they just lack the “cleared its orbit” requirement (e.g. Ceres in the asteroid belt). That would disqualify any Oort cloud objects except Pluto and Charon as far as I know.
