Scaling the Solar System

1. If the sun was .25 inches in diameter and was located inside your room the planet of Saturn would be 21 feet away putting it right across from locker 269 and 285 about 5 feet from Patterson's room. Earth would be located two feet from your room. I believe this because Saturn is much farther away from the sun than Earth is.

2. If I were 3 years old on Saturn I would be 89 years old on Earth. The speed at which the planets rotate is different and days are longer on Saturn then they are on Earth.

3. I would weigh 212.8 lbs. on Saturn. Jupiter would make me weigh the most. Because it shows the force of gravity on different planets other than our own.
