  2. Solar System model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_System_model

    The scale of the planets is the same as the scale between them, and the planets are represented by everyday objects; the Earth is a peppercorn, Jupiter is a walnut, and Neptune is a coffee bean. (dismantled) Saint-Louis-du-Ha! Ha!, Quebec: 1:10,000,000,000 0.1 m 0.1 cm 15 m 0.6 km (dismantled) (est. 1985) Lafayette Walk Detroit, Michigan

  3. Solar System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_System

    If the Sun–Neptune distance is scaled to 100 metres (330 ft), then the Sun would be about 3 cm (1.2 in) in diameter (roughly two-thirds the diameter of a golf ball), the giant planets would be all smaller than about 3 mm (0.12 in), and Earth's diameter along with that of the other terrestrial planets would be smaller than a flea (0.3 mm or 0. ...

  4. Outline of the Solar System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_the_Solar_System

    The Sun, planets, moons and dwarf planets (true color, size to scale, distances not to scale) The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to the Solar System: Solar System – gravitationally bound system comprising the Sun and the objects that orbit it, either directly or indirectly. Of those objects that orbit the ...

  5. Geocentric model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geocentric_model

    This drawing from an Icelandic manuscript dated around 1750 illustrates the geocentric model. Not all Greeks agreed with the geocentric model. The Pythagorean system has already been mentioned; some Pythagoreans believed the Earth to be one of several planets going around a central fire. [ 25 ]

  6. Planet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planet

    The eight planets of the Solar System with size to scale (up to down, left to right): Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune (outer planets), Earth, Venus, Mars, and Mercury (inner planets) A planet is a large, rounded astronomical body that is generally required to be in orbit around a star, stellar remnant, or brown dwarf, and is not one itself. [1]

  7. Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth

    Earth orbits the Sun, making Earth the third-closest planet to the Sun and part of the inner Solar System. Earth's average orbital distance is about 150 million km (93 million mi), which is the basis for the astronomical unit (AU) and is equal to roughly 8.3 light minutes or 380 times Earth's distance to the Moon.

  8. Neptune - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptune

    Early renderings of the two planets greatly exaggerated Neptune's colour contrast "to better reveal the clouds, bands and winds", making it seem deep blue compared to Uranus's off-white. The two planets had been imaged with different systems, making it hard to directly compare the resulting composite images. This was revisited with the colour ...

  9. Mercury (planet) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_(planet)

    Mercury to scale among the Inner Solar System planetary-mass objects beside the Sun, arranged by the order of their orbits outward from the Sun (from left: Mercury, Venus, Earth, the Moon, Mars and Ceres) Mercury is one of four terrestrial planets in the Solar System, which means it is a rocky body like Earth.
