Is there a table of Electric Dipole Moments, ##\bar p##, for the Sun, Earth, Planets, Minor Planets and Moons?

It would seem that you've asked about this before...Philosophaie said:I could not find the link to the Creationist (Which I am Not) site but I found one similar:

This agrees with the Mpresent converted to the Magnetic Dipole Moment,m, in the link.

An electric dipole moment is a measure of the separation between positive and negative charges within an object. It is a vector quantity that describes the magnitude and direction of the electric dipole.
The electric dipole moment of the Sun is measured by observing the magnetic field generated by the Sun's rotation. The stronger the dipole component of the magnetic field, the larger the electric dipole moment.
The electric dipole moment of the Earth is important for understanding the Earth's magnetic field and its interactions with the solar wind. It also plays a role in the Earth's atmosphere and its effects on climate.
The electric dipole moments of the planets vary depending on their size, composition, and distance from the Sun. Generally, larger planets with stronger magnetic fields tend to have larger electric dipole moments.
Yes, minor planets and moons can have electric dipole moments, although they may be smaller than those of larger planets. The electric dipole moments of minor planets and moons can also vary depending on their composition and distance from the Sun.
