- 10 km is equal to:
- 11.034 km -- deepest known point of the ocean, Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench.
- 13 km -- mean diameter of Deimos, the smaller moon of MarsMars is the fourth planet from the Sun in the solar system, named after the Roman god of war (the counterpart of the Greek Ares), on account of its blood red color as viewed in the night sky. Mars has two small moons, Phobos and Deimos, both small and odd

- 20 km -- diameter of LedaLeda (pronounced "LEE da") is a satellite of Jupiter that was discovered by Charles T. Kowal at the Mount Palomar Observatory on September 14, 1974, right after three nights' worth of photographic plates had been taken ( September 11 through 13; Leda appe, one of Jupiter's moons
- 20 km -- diameter of PanPan ("PAN") is a moon of Saturn, named after the god Pan. It was discovered by Mark R. Showalter in 1990 from analysis of old Voyager probe photos. Pan is within the Encke division in Saturn's A Ring; it acts as a shepherd and is responsible for keeping t, one of SaturnSaturn is the sixth planet from the Sun. It is a gas giant, the second-largest planet in the solar system after Jupiter. It was named after the Roman god Saturn. Its symbol is a stylized representation of the god's sickle ( Unicode: ♄).
