VOS O offers a simple solution to scale our solar system. From a reference (diameter, distance, or scale), VOS O lists the diameters and distances scaled for all planets, the eccentricity of their orbit, and their respective positions around the sun at a given date (heliocentric longitude).
Distance: pixels. Desktop version 1.2.2. 1 pixel = 1,000 km. This 2D visual model illustrates the scale of the sun and planets in our solar system, and their current distance from each other.
1. Learn about sizes and distances in our solar system. 2. Decide what kind of model you want to build. 3. Choose where your model solar system will go. 4. Calculate scale distances. 5. Calculate scale planet sizes. 6. Calculate combined scale distance and planet size. 7. Create and display your model. 8. Make a Solar System on a String (scale ...
NASA Eyes lets you explore a simulation of the whole Solar System and beyond, all completely to scale, including NASA spacecraft, past and present, as well as discovered exoplanets. Night Sky Network "Worlds of the Solar System" is the source of the Planets to Scale. PDF.
Using scale models helps us to visualise this. In this project we'll show you how to make a model of the Solar System that shows the distances between the planets to scale. It makes for a fun science and astronomy project for kids, both at home and in school.
20 sty 2005 · Demonstrate the difference in scale between the size of the dots representing the planet diameters and their distances from the Sun. Point out that the true planet diameters are thousands of miles or kilometers, while the distances from the Sun are millions of miles or kilometers.
