Dymaxion world map with continental landmasses (I,II,III,IV) and largest islands (1–30) roughly to scale. This list includes all islands in the world larger than 2,500 km 2 (970 sq mi) and most of the islands over 1,000 km 2 (390 sq mi), sorted in descending order by area.
The sizes are listed in units of Jupiter radii (71,492 km). All planets listed are larger than 1.7 times the size of the largest planet in the Solar System, Jupiter.Some planets that are smaller than 1.7 R J have been included for the sake of comparison.
They are planetary-mass moons and among the largest objects in the Solar System. All four, along with Titan, Triton, and Earth's Moon, are larger than any of the Solar System's dwarf planets. The largest, Ganymede, is the largest moon in the Solar System and surpasses the planet Mercury in size (though not mass). Callisto is only slightly ...
