  3. Historical models of the Solar System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_models_of_the...

    The planets are not shown at the appropriate distance from the Sun. Historical models of the Solar System first appeared during prehistoric periods and are being updated to this day. The models of the Solar System throughout history were first represented in the early form of cave markings and drawings, calendars and astronomical symbols. Then ...

    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 ...

    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.

    720,000 km/h (450,000 mi/h) [10] Orbital period. ~230 million years [10] The Solar System [d] is the gravitationally bound system of the Sun and the objects that orbit it. [11] It was formed about 4.6 billion years ago when a dense region of a molecular cloud collapsed, forming the Sun and a protoplanetary disc.

    An artist's impression of the Oort cloud and the Kuiper belt (inset); the sizes of objects are over-scaled for visibility. The Oort cloud ( / ɔːrt, ʊərt / ), [1] sometimes called the Öpik–Oort cloud, [2] is theorized to be a vast cloud of icy planetesimals surrounding the Sun at distances ranging from 2,000 to 200,000 AU (0.03 to 3.2 ...

  8. List of possible dwarf planets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_possible_dwarf_planets

    The number of dwarf planets in the Solar System is unknown. Estimates have run as high as 200 in the Kuiper belt and over 10,000 in the region beyond. However, consideration of the surprisingly low densities of many large trans-Neptunian objects, as well as spectroscopic analysis of their surfaces, suggests that the number of dwarf planets may be much lower, perhaps only nine among bodies ...

  9. Pajamäki Solar System Scale Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pajamäki_Solar_System...

    The planets are placed on concrete posts so that their distances to the sun are in scale. The sizes of the planets are also in scale: e.g. the size of Mercury is only 4.9 millimeters. There are explanatory texts on the model and the planets near the models in special tables. The texts are in Finnish, Swedish and English.
