| | | How big is the solar system
Hi,whist pondering i could not get my head around how small our solar system is in terms of fractions of a light year.I know sun to pluto is 3.5 billion miles roughly and i think one light year is 6 trillion miles which makes our solar system a fraction of one percent lightyear i think.Bring in these oort clouds i just read about apparently one light year away(how can they possibly be part of our solar system)The mind boggles.After all this i reckon the solar system is about 0.5% of one light year.Am i correct or should i stick to birds.Bombus Bombus. |
