Detailed explanation-1: -Largest to smallest are pictured left to right, top to bottom: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Earth, Venus, Mars, Mercury.
Detailed explanation-2: -Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, it is two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined. Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun.
Detailed explanation-3: -2) How big is the Moon? This one’s another easy approximation to remember: The Moon is about one-fourth (or a quarter) the size of Earth in width. Put another way, Earth is about four times wider than the Moon. That’s just about as wide as the United States or Europe.
Detailed explanation-4: -With a radius of about 1, 080 miles (1, 740 kilometers), the Moon is less than a third of the width of Earth. If Earth were the size of a nickel, the Moon would be about as big as a coffee bean. The Moon is an average of 238, 855 miles (384, 400 kilometers) away.
Detailed explanation-5: -Mercury – 1, 516mi (2, 440km) radius; about 1/3 the size of Earth. Venus – 3, 760mi (6, 052km) radius; only slightly smaller than Earth. Earth – 3, 959mi (6, 371km) radius. Mars – 2, 106mi (3, 390km) radius; about half the size of Earth. Jupiter – 43, 441mi (69, 911km) radius; 11x Earth’s size. More items •24-Oct-2003
