To Scale: The Solar System
 

Very Cool. Thanks

WOW !
Many thanx!

Thanks, Baz. I really enjoyed the creativity and perspective...loved it.

I find it amazing that (with the distances involved) gravity holds the solar system together. Great post/demonstration.

What a coincidence. This was posted in another thread on here last fall and just last night I was telling a buddy of mine about it.

Very cool video, for sure!

I find it amazing that (with the distances involved) gravity holds the Universe together. ;)

Staggering. Amazing. Thanks for that Baz.
I read that some of the astronauts burst into tears at the sight of the earth for the first time from out there.
Who wouldn't? :eek:

Wow. Enjoyed that, Thank you Baz. Very creatively done.

I studied astronomy for most of my elective science courses, and was not surprised by the scaling. What pleased me most was that our society and education system is still producing these very bright and creative young people. Awesome.
