Solar System Planets (from smallest to largest)

(Pluto is no longer classified as a planet, but it’s there for size comparison. As for the Sun, it was never a planet but is here for the very same reason.)

I always wanted to see a one-by-one comparison of the sizes of the planets, so I put the numbers into my 3d program. These are all correct proportions (of size, not distance).

Tamen, the final planet, was a world we created when we were children. Obsessed with size, we said it was 1,000 times larger than Earth’s sun (this was actually only 100 times larger, because 1000 made the sun so small you couldn’t really see it). We later learned that such a planet would have to much gravity that not only would no living thing survive, but you may get a nice little black hole started right there in the planet!

    Wait no I just red …
    Wait no I just red the discription and it says Tamend is a planet that gscream made up when he was young so if it were real it would have catastrophic reslts because it is far too large to be a planet.

    It’s prbably a star mastuck for a planet.

    What’s Tamen?
    What’s Tamen?

    it is a theoretical planet. it has been hypothesized that there are supermassive planetary bodies orbiting huge supermassive stars. this planet “tamen” has never been found partly because it is most likely rare, or simply doesn’t exist.

    I like the way it shows a planet you made up but
    I think it is missing one important element.
    Some stars other than our sun.

  7. errm the sun isnt a …
    errm the sun isnt a planet :D sowi

  8. thanks! forgot …
    thanks! forgot about that one…

  9. it’s cool how smart …
    it’s cool how smart that sounded, but the reason we can almost never see ANY planets other than most of the ones in our own solar system is because they don’t reflect enough light. the outer 2 or 3 planets of our own solar system can’t even be seen by telescope. did you know that? but anyway, tamen is fake

  10. yup
    yup

  11. Tamen Have a land …
    Tamen Have a land and Water ?????

  12. Error error error!

    Error error error!

    Pluto is a plutoid not a planet :)

  13. read the …
    read the description, dude. but thanks anyway.

    so taman can hold life?

    Wohoo! Go you :D I thouht they said Pluto was just some Space Rock no longer apart of our planet? Also what the has the Flying Pig got with Pluto.

  16. lol. it did when we …
    lol. it did when we were kids, but if a planet that size COULD hold life, it probably wouldn’t be mobile. and if it were mobile, the strength it would take just to walk around would be enough to jump out of the atmosphere of the earth without needing a single bit of technology to help you. … supposedly…

  17. Bazchyena says:

    Tamen?
    Anyway, we …

    Tamen?
    Anyway, we Man hasnt touched the start’s YET! Armstrong was a fake, it’s true, why was their wind? And also, their’s spot’s of string, and one man said to the new’s it was true.

    P.S. Make a moon one :P :D

  18. steveisgood says:

    ummmm….no.


    ummmm….no.

    Jupiter is about as massive as a planet can get before it starts shrinking in diameter, and burning deuterium in its core (which is one type of brown dwarf).

    No self-respecting planetary scientist hypothesizes a “supermassive planetary body” with a straight face…..gravity simply won’t allow it.

    do yuh kno y saturn needs its rings??
    but cool, and earth is dha best planet so far.

  20. hey thanks, man. …
    hey thanks, man. that totally makes sense, considering the gravity of stars and other such gigantic masses having problems like that. but anyway, the planet is fake and I only made this to make people laugh at my childhood :)

    what the i …
    what the i thought the planets are only Mercury, Venus earth mars Jupiter Uranus Neptune Pluto…

    The planet Tamen is the best and its huge. I like it and it would own all you mother fuckers!!! lol

    if you added the vy canis majoris compared with tamen then id be impresed

    I know this video is complete bollox. It has been proven that there are extraterrestrial planets ten+ times bigger than jupiter.
