Solar System Scale Model

Solar System Scale Model Deborah Scherrer, Stanford Solar Center Target Audiences: Public science events Activity Time: Youth groups 15-20 minutes Science museums, planetaria Astronomy clubs Community events Age Group: Other Informal Science educational 9-adult locations & events Materials Needed: diameter scaled Sun ( balloon, whatever). Scale models of the 8 planets, asteroids, Kuiper belt objects 3 differently-scaled versions of Earth, including 1 that matches your scaled Earth Toy car or other Scale Model example Extra Earth marbles (optional). Eclipse glasses (optional). Printed satellite image of event location (optional). Transparent overlay of scaled planet orbits (optional). Background: The Scale of our Solar System is difficult to imagine when we are standing on what appears to be a large planet looking at an apparently small Sun.

Stanford Solar Center Scale Model 2 Process: 1. Ask your audience if they know what a scale model is. A scale model is a representation or copy of something that is larger or smaller than the actual object but maintains the relative proportions. The cars in the image on the right are all scale models that represent real cars. Each has been

solar-center.stanford.edu

The image shows a portion of the layer of the Sun's atmosphere known as the chromosphere, just above the Sun’s surface. Most of the UV light comes from the sunpot "active regions", where we can sometimes see loops, large prominences rising high above the surface of the Sun. At the north and south poles of the Sun, less UV light is emitted ...
