    The largest such scale model, the Sweden Solar System, uses the 110-meter (361-foot) Avicii Arena in Stockholm as its substitute Sun, and, following the scale, Jupiter is a 7.5-meter (25-foot) sphere at Stockholm Arlanda Airport, 40 km (25 mi) away, whereas the farthest current object, Sedna, is a 10 cm (4 in) sphere in Luleå, 912 km (567 mi ...

    Parts-per-million chart of the relative mass distribution of the Solar System, each cubelet denoting 2 × 10 24 kg. This article includes a list of the most massive known objects of the Solar System and partial lists of smaller objects by observed mean radius. These lists can be sorted according to an object's radius and mass and, for the most ...

  6. Numerical model of the Solar System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_model_of_the...

    In essence this mathematical simulation of the Solar System is a form of the N-body problem. The symbol N represents the number of bodies, which can grow quite large if one includes the Sun, 8 planets, dozens of moons, and countless planetoids, comets and so forth.

  7. File:Scale model of Solar System 10 billion to 1.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Scale_model_of_Solar...

    English: This 10 billion to 1 scale model of the Solar system can be placed into hallways of most school buildings. The inner solar system can be placed inside, while some or all of the the outer planets are typically placed outside, with Neptune at a distance of 450 meters from the Sun. Students can copy the drawings by hand on index cards or cut them out and glue or tape to the cards.

  8. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    Scale model at megameters of the main Solar System bodies. To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths starting at 10 8 meters (100 megameters or 100,000 kilometers or 62,150 miles). 102 Mm – diameter of HD 149026 b, an unusually dense Jovian planet; 115 Mm – width of Saturn's Rings

  9. Titius–Bode law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titius–Bode_law

    Note in particular that in Blagg's formula, the law for the Solar System was best represented by a progression in 1.7275, rather than the original value 2 used by Titius, Bode, and others. Blagg examined the satellite system of Jupiter , Saturn , and Uranus , and discovered the same progression ratio 1.7275 , in each.
