Happy New Year 2015!

So just to reiterate, the planets are shown with the correct relative sizes, but not relative spacing because there is no way to fit it on here if I do that! The lower image with the very small sun shows how far apart the planets are with the sun that small. They are VERY far away. I also left out our moon because many people think it’s absurdly close to the earth, and I don’t want to feed that misconception, even with the “not to scale” caveat.

If you want to get a better idea of how far apart the planets are, check out this scrollable diagram!
