I find it amazing that someone actually took the time to make an up to scale solar system. I wonder how long it actually took to make the whole website. I never actually realized how much space is in our solar system. I find it so interesting that all the planets are so small.

It takes too much time to scroll...Anyway, I wonder how long it took to find all the averages. I wish I could travel in space, but in VR so it takes five minutes. I wish space took less...Space! ⭐️☄️

That is really cool how they show approximately how long it would take to get there. I wonder
How long it took create this amazing presentation.
I wonder if they could make a line thingy to the end of space!! (Spoiler alert, there is no end to space!!)

Wow that was really amazing. I knew the planets were far but I did not know that Jupiter is 3x the amount from the sun to mars. I wonder how long it would take to scroll all the way to Neptune. I also wonder how many dashes would there be in the whole entire solar

It is truly amazing how the site can be a mix of awesomely exciting and miserably boring. It’s great to see the planets, and it’s SO cool that the scale is accurate, but,
you get bored just scrolling and scrolling and scrolling...

Are they sure it won’t take 13 months to scroll there, I wonder who has the time to scroll to the end of it, I wonder who has the time to make this. I wonder if you were super lonely and suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper bored if you would scroll through the entire thing and read all of it

I just can’t believe that there is so much SPACE in SPACE! That was completely amazing! I wonder how much space is between galaxy's.

I scrolled to the end of the map, Pluto was invisible. I wonder how many Harry Potter movie marathons have been seen outside our atmosphere.

That's one of the coolest Monday curiosities ever. It is insane who how far apart everything even the inner planets are super far apart.

Jackson

🤯what that is insane I wonder how long it took to make this I mean the amount of empty space is mind BLOWING wow

Spencer

2018-02-20 17:37:11 UTC

*OH MY GOD!*
Space is so big. I wonder how everything got so SPACEd out. 🤯 That was so cool. I wonder how long it would take to get to Pluto driving at 75 miles an hour
Pluto

OMG!! That is pretty crazy that the planets are that far apart. And plus that was just on a scale!!🤯 I wonder how long it took that person to create that scale. I am also curious to know how long it would take a space shuttle to get to Neptune since it took the last shuttle 13 months to reach Jupiter.

That is so interesting! I wonder how long it would take if you wanted to walk there. If you don’t think about the fact that you would STARVE TO DEATH AND RUN OUT OF OXYGEN AND ALSO NOT BE ABLE TO MOVE. But if it was possible how long would it take?

David

2018-02-20 17:37:21 UTC

I think that it is time wasting but is also informative. You could make alot of research from ju st going not even past Jupiter

Wow, space is so big. If I was on that road trip, put me in Cryo-Sleep or some sort of sleeper thing for years. I just want to figure out if Planet X is real.

Carina

2018-02-20 17:41:41 UTC

Wow. It is almost creepy how large our planet Earth seems to us but how small the Earth and the Sun, which could fit 1 million Earths inside, really are. I wonder how long that took to make. Also, I wonder if it was difficult, or if it was pretty easy just putting facts and small dots to represent planets. 🌠

Ryan

2018-02-20 18:32:04 UTC

I never knew how far the planets were from the sun. I wonder how long would it take to get to the other side of the solar system and back.

2018-02-20 18:32:25 UTC

Molly
Wow just wow I cant cant even think of anything. Just kidding I am curious about many things. First of all I didn’t know how large space was until I saw this. I’m curious that how many people actually thought it was smaller than it is. I know I sure did.

Kwaw

I never would have thought that everything in outer space was so far apart. It would take forever to get to just one planet. Even the closest planet to Earth would take a long time to get there. I wonder if we will find a faster way to travel in space. It would probably be more fun than riding in a space ship/ space shuttle.

Ava

2018-02-20 18:32:30 UTC

Wow I had no idea the planets were that far away! I wonder though if you were standing at let’s say earth could you see another planet and or the sun? Also I wonder how long it took to make that scale because it is so BIG, and we didn’t even get to the end of it?!?!

Kailyn

2018-02-20 18:32:30 UTC

I thought that was so cool how big the sun is compared to all the other plants. I wonder how big the planets really are if the sun looked way bigger than the other planets. The planets are way farther apart than what I thought because when I see pictures of the solar system the planets look so much closer in the picture than in real life.

Isabella

2018-02-20 18:32:33 UTC

I can’t believe that is how far it is to Jupiter. I wonder how many kilometers it takes to get to Pluto. Next I think that it is just crazy how much you have to move to get to all of these planets. I think this was a very good Monday curiosities.

Kannon

2018-02-20 18:32:41 UTC

I wonder how all those planets got so far apart from each other or how they even were made?

That’s insane. I never thought that the planets in space were really so far apart. But in stuff like videos and tv they look so close. I wonder if any of these planets have moved from one place to another.

2018-02-20 18:32:49 UTC

Me (grant)

graswi652 — 2018-02-20 18:32:51 UTC

Wow... just wow space is huge! Even in scale it’s HUGE. I wonder if we will find our way OUT of our galaxy!

Alexa

2018-02-20 18:32:51 UTC

Wow! I never knew how far apart things are in space! I wonder how long it took to make the scale and make sure it was accurate. I liked how they added comments between distances so the viewers would not get bored scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling. After all, this was an awesome Monday Curiosities!

❤️Olivia❤️

2018-02-20 18:32:59 UTC

...ok. That is a LONG distance. There goes my brothers wanted space career;). That was cool! I wonder how big space is altogether. Honestly, I really SHOULDN’T be wondering that. The sky never ends!

Jude

THAT WAS AMAZING!!!!! I wonder what would happen if the sun was the size of our Milky Way. That would be EPIC

That was awesome I think if you look on a map they do not Evan look that far away but on the scale they are really far apart.

Ariel

When I was three I thought we got milk from space. Now I am so shocked how far apart they are . I wonder how our galaxy was named the "milky way".

Lily

2018-02-20 18:45:49 UTC

I have never as much like an insignificant speck as much as I am now. If it would take you that long to get from planet to planet, I can’t imagine how it would to start from
Earth and go to another galaxy. I wonder how the people who made that found out how far away planets are away from each other.

Aidan

2018-02-20 18:46:43 UTC

I wonder if they could make a drone that could withstand the heat of the sun

Roman

2018-02-20 18:46:55 UTC

I can’t believe it takes that long to travel to Jupiter. I wonder how long it would take to get to Neptune in a spaceship

Matthew

2018-02-20 18:47:07 UTC

That is so crazy I like how they put comments to keep you entertained. I wonder how they figured all that stuff out?
