The size of solid bodies does not include an object's atmosphere. For example, Titan looks bigger than Ganymede, but its solid body is smaller. For the giant planets, the "radius" is defined as the distance from the center at which the atmosphere reaches 1 bar of atmospheric pressure.

Directory. This template is to show size comparison of Jupiter, Neptune and the Earth alongside extrasolar planets that have their radial size confirmed. {{Planetary radius | radius = <!--simplified number of the radius (Jupiter equals 100px)--> }} Some planets might have a radius that would be hard to compare to Jupiter.
NASA just announced that they've found 219 potential planets, and of those, 10 are close to the size of Earth and could possibly sustain life. NASA finds evidence of 10 new Earth-size planets that ...
The planet is about the size of Venus, so slightly smaller than Earth, and may be temperate enough to support life, the researchers said. Dubbed Gliese 12 b, the planet takes 12.8 days to orbit a ...
Use of NASA logos, insignia and emblems is restricted per U.S. law 14 CFR 1221.; The NASA website hosts a large number of images from the Soviet/Russian space agency, and other non-American space agencies.
Pluto (bottom left) compared in size to the Earth and the Moon. Pluto's diameter is 2 376.6 ± 3.2 km and its mass is (1.303 ± 0.003) × 10 22 kg, 17.7% that of the Moon (0.22% that of Earth). Its surface area is 1.774 443 × 10 7 km 2, or just slightly bigger than Russia or Antarctica (particularly including the Antarctic sea ice during winter).
