How to Use the Planet Size Comparison Chart

• Click on a planet or the Sun for details on composition, mass, gravity, and number of moons.
• You can also zoom in and out on the planets or the Sun using the plus and minus buttons.
• Change between km / mi in settings
• Use the buttons at the top to sort the planets by their order from the Sun or by their size.
• The illustration shows correct relative size and order of the planets. Distance between planets is not to scale.
