Notes (2021)[edit]
T5.09 includes sizes for Giant planets that stretch from L (20,000 miles) to X including both 'S' and 'R' used for other codes in previous versions without defining a code that replaces the meanings of 'S' and 'R' as used in this wiki.[1]
Similarly the extension of size codes beyond 12 ('C') mean that the meaning of 'D' as defined in this wiki is also now duplicated. BackworldTraveller (talk) 09:51, 24 April 2021 (EDT)

- Note that the size code D ( Debris ) is non-standard. It is included to cover such cases as Comet Mid-Rift (Deneb 3234), which are less than 200Km, but not part of an asteroid belt, yet important enough to have mention.
