Sort By:
r = AstronomicalData["Jupiter", "Satellites"];
Sort[r]
Length[r]
To make a small table
r = Sort[r];
TableForm[Table[{i, r[[i]]}, {i, Length[r]}]]

Sort[AstronomicalData["Jupiter", "Satellites"]]
Length[%]

Hey, yes, that's great, thanks!

I was playing with the "Sort[ ]" function, but I was obviously using it incorrectly, as I was not getting these nice results.

Thanks again!
