Desert Places
Those of you who had one of my classes where I used Robert Frost's poem "Desert Places" might get a kick out of the scale model of The Solar System that has been posted online.
Each pixel equals 1,000km, and as you scroll to the right, you start to get the idea of just how vast the distances between the planets are. That and seeing how teensy our planet looks in relation to the sun and the gas giants makes the desert places that Frost was talking about all the more easy to imagine.
