🌌 Journey Through the Solar System
Scale: 10 million km = 1 line on the markdown
☀️
☉ Sυɳ
A blinding sphere of nuclear fusion.
Much like sound waves, the sun has pressure waves that are constantly bouncing around inside it, caused by turbulent boiling motions in its plasma. Helioseismology is the field astronomers use to “listen” to these waves, and from them, they can map the internal structure of the Sun. And the “notes” the Sun plays? They’re incredibly low
— with some taking hours to complete a single oscillation.

☿ Mҽɾƈυɾყ
Small, scorched, no atmosphere.
A day on Mercury (sunrise to sunrise) is 176 Earth days - twice as long as its year of 88 Earth days
— if you lived there, you’d have two birthdays daily.
.
.
.
.

🌕
♀ Vҽɳυʂ
The hottest planet, wrapped in acid clouds, and crushing atmosphere.
Venus’s day is longer than its year — plus it spins backwards (retrograde rotation),
— if you stood on its surface, the Sun would rise in the west and set in the east.

♂ Mαɾʂ
Cold, red, dusty, and waiting for hikers.
Mars is home to the tallest volcano in the Solar System, "Olympus Mons", with elevation of about 25 kilometers above datum,
and the deepest canyon (lowest point) in the Solar System, "Hellas Planitia", lies about 25 kilometers below the datum.

🟠
♃ Jυριƚҽɾ
The giant. Storms the size of Earth.
Jupiter is so massive that all other planets combined would only make up about half its mass.
A 2024 study analyzing historical observations has revealed that the current Great Red Spot is NOT the "Permanent Spot" Cassini observed from 1665 to 1713. Between mid-18th thru 19th centuries the spot disappeared — making the current Great Red Spot only about 190 years old.

🪐
♄ Sαƚυɾɳ
Lord of the rings, and lord of the moons - all 274 of them
The thickness of the rings is estimated to range from mostly 10 meters to 150 meters in some parts
– this means you have a tape-measure at home that can pass through Saturn's ring!
Saturn is the least dense planet in the solar system – made mostly of hydrogen – it's density is less than that of water
– which technically means that Saturn would float.

♅ Uɾαɳυʂ
The coldest planet, tilted on its side, pale blue.
The planet is tilted at ~90° – exposing each pole to face the sun for 42 Earth years – interchangeably.
Its atmosphere may contain diamond rain, as methane (the source of its pale blue color) is compressed into diamond-like structures under immense pressure.

♆ Nҽρƚυɳҽ
Deep blue, and very windy.
With speeds of up to 2,100 km/h (1,250 mph), Neptune's atmosphere has the strongest winds in the Solar System.
It is also the only planet that was predicted to exist mathematically – before it was officially confirmed by observation.

♇ Pʅυƚσ
Small, icy, Dwarf Planet
Pluto's year is 248 Earth years, and it hasn't even made half of its orbit around the sun since it was discovered in 1930.
It is also smaller than our Moon and is only 18% of the moon's mass.
🌠
Congrats! you've made it to the Kuiper Belt, and on your way into the interstellar space
For reference here is the line count between each planet.
From → To | Distance (10 million km) | Lines |
---|---|---|
Sun → Mercury | 5.79 | 6 |
Mercury → Venus | 5.03 | 5 |
Venus → Earth | 4.14 | 4 |
Earth → Mars | 7.83 | 8 |
Mars → Jupiter | 55.06 | 55 |
Jupiter → Saturn | 65.45 | 65 |
Saturn → Uranus | 144.4 | 144 |
Uranus → Neptune | 162.6 | 163 |
Neptune → Pluto | 139.7 | 140 |
I don't really know what to call this content... I honestly wanted to see what sort of creative things I can do using the markdown – It's been a fascination of mine as of late. I want to not just make written content – but some sort of a visual experience, using only what PeakD markdown allows – a kind of 'thinking outside the box.'
Let me know if it was worth the 5,900,000,000 km trip.
How do I go back?
What speed did I scroll at?
lol I dont know, but you are on your way out of the solar system for good.
🤣 See you in another solar system, or perhaps another galaxy, I guess... Do they have HIVE there too?!
LOL we have to onboard them right away! I think staking HBD will be especially appealing to them.
the question is... can I see this on an old phone without crashing it?

yeah, but will it 'scale'?
If I made scale smaller by one decimal, the distance would grow by 9 additional dots for every dot that's there. it was a bit risky to try.
That's cool. It's hard to comprehend these distances. We really are just a speck in the 'ether'.
In the words of Douglas Adams:
Nice to see you still include Pluto. I hear there may be others out there of a similar size.
!BEER
Thank you!
Its definitely incomprehensible! And the world of the 'small' is even bigger! imagine this: between an atom and our galaxy, the midpoint in scale is a red blood cell.
Pluto, of course! The pantheon is not complete without the god of the underworld. Pluto has been demoted to a dwarf planet... it also has such extreme elliptical orbit that at times it is closer to the sun than Neptune.
you're making me nerd-out 🤓
I was taught to remember the planet order with the phrase:
Most volcanoes erupt mouldy jam sandwiches under normal pressure
It doesn't work without Pluto.
LOL I never heard that! its so weird that you're bound to remember!
And thank you so much for the re-blog! 🤗

That is very creative!!! amazing!!
😊Thank you!
🙏
Maybe one day you will add there Planet IX
Its very possible, I wonder what will be its mythological name...
This reminds me of a project on the previous platform, where they invited people to show only page designs, without text. I think that didn't work out very well at the time.
However, what you've shown here seems very interesting to me.
Well done!
Thank you so much!
I really enjoy playing with the markdown, I think of it less as a 'text space' but more as a 'visual presentation'.
Originally, I had a slightly more ambitious idea for this Solar System model (10K km), but the AI warned me against it cause I guess I could crush one's browser with millions of lines. I could have gone with 1 Million KM, but in the end opted to have mercy on your scrolling finger. 😇
My pleasure!
I'm glad you posted the simple version. My computer would have been the first to crash! (Not to mention saving my finger from scrolling.)
Молодец! 👍
!BEER
Spasibo! 🍻😋

HUGE LOL !
Wish I’d seen this earlier. I would have upvoted you. Great use of markdown, super creative. The universe is hopefully billionaire proof!!
The scary part is that they might become trillionaires before lunching out there.
😊and thank you so much!
🙏
Scary indeed or Bazillionaires which is not actually a word but one we use a lot here!
Now this is COOL ... I got the sense of the space ... and yes, "Swerve Space" was playing in my head as I explored ... I especially loved how you visualized the asteroid belt!
