If we change the consideration there are 3 missing, "0" being the first. Then after 14 the next is 5.

I protest!
First: The number of natural satellites of the planets. The missing 2 elements are Jupiter and Saturn with an abundance each.
Second: If we change the consideration as you hinted then we include the dwarf planets. Ceres has zero and Jupiter and Saturn.
Third: It then follows that the next after 14 would be Pluto which has 5 natural satellites, unless of course that you consider the next element a binary system, which would render 4 satellites of the binary. I am split over the binary issue.

Another sequence. Six terms.

6, 14, 26, 30, 19, 5

Edit: I forget to search first to make sure it isn't easy, but it's okay, not found from looking at the first few pages of results.

Edit2: Oh bugger. Yeah, google finds it with a slightly modified input.

Sure you got the basic thing right and I made a mistake saying Yes, no, no. It should have been yes, yes, yes.
As I consider (my sort of educated opinion) that neither Pluto, Eris, Makemake, Haumea or Ceres are Planets then you are
Correct!
