We don't want to sound big-headed, but the solar system actually fits within Sweden! 🌌

Sweden Solar System is the world’s largest model of the planetary system, to our knowledge. The Sun is represented by the Avicii Arena in Stockholm, one of the largest spherical buildings in the world. The planets are lined up in a northern direction from there. All in a scale of 1:20 million.

🪐 The scale is true to reality, but the planet models are pieces of art and not true depictions of the actual planets. Each model is connected to a host institution, such as a museum or a university.

✨ Coordinated by the Swedish Astronomical Society, Sweden Solar System aims to give people a feeling of the enormous distances in space, and how small the planets are compared with the Sun.
