the earth and the moon are two hundred
and fifty two thousand eighty eight
miles away within that distance you
could fit every planet in our whole
The solar system, but let’s talk about
The Great Red Spot on Jupiter
That's about twice as big as Earth
Saturn is nine times larger.
Saturn's rings are so large
That some of the fragments within them
are as large as mountains but that is
Nothing compared to our Sun
Remember This is Earth and This Is Earth
From the moon this is Earth from Mars
Here's Earth from just behind Saturn's
rings and here's earth from just beyond
Neptune 4 billion miles away but a
A billion is a big number, so let’s put
That in perspective of one million seconds
equals about eleven and a half days
1 billion seconds is equal to over 31
years let's step back a little, here's the

Its diameter is about 100,000 light-years

taken by the Hubble Telescope there are
thousands of galaxies each
containing millions or billions of stars
with their own planets
Some of the objects seen here may have
