But I was curious what this scale was, and what that meant for the orbits of Jupiter and Pluto. So rough calculations show this is 5.42 billion to 1 scale. And if the sun was on the goal line, Jupiter would be the length of the field, past the endzone, and about 10 rows up into the stands. (147m from the basketball.) Pluto would be 1.1km away. (And yes, Earth is at 27m.)
