Scaled Images of the Solar System

Content Provider PBS LearningMedia
Description Learn about the scale of the solar system in this gallery of images from NASA. The first image shows two different models of the planets at different scales. The upper part of the image illustrates the relative sizes of the planets and their correct order from the Sun, but the distances are not represented. The lower part of the image illustrates the relative distances of the planetary orbits, but the sizes of the planets are exaggerated. The second image is an infographic about the relative sizes of the planets and their distances from the Sun. The third image shows the largest moons and smallest planets of the solar system on the same scale. To view the Background Essay and Teaching Tips for this media gallery, go to Support Materials below. This resource was developed through WGBH’s Bringing the Universe to America’s Classrooms project, in collaboration with NASA. Click here for the full collection of resources.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
