Solar System in 1:700,000,000 Scale
Mar 31 2018
Here's your chance to literally own our solar system! A model containing 16 objects true to scale to one another.
The model includes:
- the 4 rocky inner system planets
- the 4 gas giants
- the 4 Galilean Moons of Jupiter
- Earth's Moon
- Titan
- Triton
- Pluto
As an added bonus the Gas Giants also feature their true oblate spheroid shape. Due to their rapid rotation, either Jupiter or Saturn and to a much lesser degree Uranus & Neptune are deformed around the equator, enough to be easily seen to the naked eye.
