I Often Take A Picture Of The Moon,

and post it on our blog,


so it was interesting for me when I came across this fact, if you add up the diameters of every planet in the solar system but earth, the number is less than 238,555 miles, which means that if you could fit them together nice and snug, you could line them up between here and the moon, I found the picture at imgur.com, where you can read a number of comments concerning it, the diagram is I believe from NASA, but so far I have not been able to find it on their site, just as an aside take the biggest planet Jupiter it has a diameter of 86,881 miles, as another aside Jupiter is so large that all of the other planets in the solar system could fit inside it, just think how big space really is.
