A scaled down view of the Universe

Some scaled down distances
.01 of a mm = 50 Kilometres or 31.069 miles
.1 of a mm = 500 km or 310.69 miles
.2 of a mm = 1,000 km or 621.38 miles
2 mm = 10,000 km or 6213.8 miles
20 mm = 100,000 km or 62,138 miles
200 mm = 1 Million km or 621,380 miles
2 metres = 10 Million km or 6,213,800 miles
20 metres = 100 Million km or 62,138,000 miles
200 metres = 1,000 Million km or 621,380,000 miles
1,892.14 km = 9,460,700,000,000 km or 5,878,600,000,000 miles. One Light Year.

Sun and Planets drawn at scale size but

distances from sun are not to scale. Scaled down distances from the sun in white.

In this scaled down view as we can see below, distances still

become huge.

Mercury. Diameter 4,880 km or 3,032 Miles = 0.976 of a mm. Distance from Sun, 57,910,000 km or 35,980, 000 miles. = 11 metres, 582 mm.

Venus. Diameter 12,100 km or 7,520 Miles = 2.42 mm. Distance from Sun, 108,200,000 km or 67, 240, 000 miles. = 21 metres, 640 mm.

Earth. Diameter 12,756 km or 7,926 Miles = 2.55 mm. Distance from Sun, 149,598,000 km or 92,960, 000 miles. = 29 metres, 919.6 mm.

Earth's moon. Diameter 3,476 km or 2,160 Miles = 0.61 of a mm. Distance from Earth, 384,400 km or 238,840 miles. = 76.88 mm.

Mars. Diameter 6,794 km or 4,212 Miles = 1.36 mm. Distance from Sun, 227,940,000 km or 141,680,000 miles. = 45 metres, 588 mm.

Jupiter. Diameter 143,000 km or 88,700 miles = 28.6 mm. Distance from Sun, 778,330,000 km or 483,700,000 miles. = 155 metres, 666 mm.

Saturn. Diameter 120,500 km or 75,100 miles = 24.1 mm. Distance from Sun, 1,429,400,000 km or 886,740,000 miles = 285 metres, 880 mm.

Uranus. Diameter 51,100 km or 32,600 Miles = 10.22 mm. Distance from Sun, 2,870,990,000 km or 1,783,170,000 miles. = 574 metres, 198 mm.

Neptune. Diameter 49,500 km or 27,700 Miles = 9.9 mm. Distance from Sun, 4,504,000,000 km or 2,794,190,000 miles. = 900 metres, 800 mm.

Pluto, a captured body. Diameter 2,300 km or 1,860 Miles = 0.46 mm. Distance from Sun, 5,913,520,000 km or 3,706,780,000 miles. = 1 km, 182 metres, 704 mm.

Nearest Star. Proxima Centauri. 4.2 Light Years away = 7,946 Km, 988 metres. Our fastest craft at present would take about 50,000 years to reach it.

The Hubble telescope can see galaxies going on and on, with an

optical distance now of up to 15,000 million ( 15 Billion.

American ) light years. Seeing stars as they where 15,000 million years ago.

Most galaxies will have increased true distance now.

On the above scale this would equal close to 3 light years, or 28,382,000,000,000 km and that's with the Earth the size above.
