Planets, Sun and star sizes compared

We just got this fantastic animation in from top space artist Dr Mark Garlick, and we felt we had to share it. The animation shows the relative sizes of all the planets in the Solar System, from the smallest to the largest. Then it shows how the Sun dwarfs even massive Jupiter. And then things get *really* big. Enjoy!

For best results, watch in HD. You can see the clip and its detailed caption on our website: search for K003/2437.
