Johnnyaardvark Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) I did a scale solar system walk in some hills above Zurich a couple of years back. Quite an eye opener. Really puts the scale into perspective. For interest.... Zurich5 Mo 189 DSC_0249 by sja88, on Flickr Always amazes me how close the inner planets are. Jupiter is not to far Away either!

dawson Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 That is a lot of scolling! Makes me think it's even more impressive that we can get such good images of Jupiter and Saturn from earth based telescopes. JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
