2. Sagan Planet Walk - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagan_Planet_Walk

   The Sagan Planet Walk has inspired the creation of other scale-model Solar Systems in the United States. The Delmar Loop Planet Walk in St. Louis, Missouri: "In 2006, I became aware of the Sagan Planet Walk in Ithaca, NY, and as an amateur astronomy buff, I found the idea of a scale model solar system to be a fascinating concept.

   The scale of the planets is the same as the scale between them, and the planets are represented by everyday objects; the Earth is a peppercorn, Jupiter is a walnut, and Neptune is a coffee bean.

   The walk begins here: the Sun model at Higher Maunsel Lock. The Somerset Space Walk is a sculpture trail model of the Solar System, located in Somerset, England.The model uses the towpath of the 22-kilometre (14-mile) Bridgwater and Taunton Canal to display a model of the Sun and its planets in their proportionally correct sizes and distances apart.

8. Cosmic distance ladder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_distance_ladder

   The cosmic distance ladder (also known as the extragalactic distance scale) is the succession of methods by which astronomers determine the distances to celestial objects. A direct distance measurement of an astronomical object is possible only for those objects that are "close enough" (within about a thousand parsecs) to Earth. The techniques ...

9. Orrery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orrery

   An orrery is a mechanical model of the Solar System that illustrates or predicts the relative positions and motions of the planets and moons, usually according to the heliocentric model. It may also represent the relative sizes of these bodies; however, since accurate scaling is often not practical due to the actual large ratio differences, it ...
