Just how big is the Earth

[Kev]

And you thought it was a long way to the shops.......

 

[puddleduck]

Cool, something I already knew, but very cool to see it like that

It doesn't however change the fact that it IS still a long way to the shops

 

[manee]

If the Earth is less than a pixel big, how do I fit on it, .

I have seen these before, but it amazes how small the Earth is compared to other planets and the sun.

Nice find Kev

Don't know if you can say the Gas planets are really that big though, for instance Kupiter is 70% gas, so do you include gas in a mass of solids?

Lol good God, never knew we had Stars that big. I knew the Sun was big but those other 7 stars are massive!

 

[Brett_Lee]

Same, never knew that stars were that big until i saw this :o

 

[shravi]

Interesting find Kev. The world seems so big to us but yet, when compared to other planets. We find some countries extremely large yet the world as whole is just a ball compared to those other massive, boulder-like planets.

Is this Scientifically proven, or Is it just an Estimate?
