Cosmic Connections
Lethbridge Solar System Tour
Have you ever wondered how far away the planets really are? When you look up in the sky on a clear night you can see the moon, stars and some planets way off in the distance — or at least the light for them which is travelling at a distance up to 300,000 km per second to reach Earth! For thousands of years, people have been fascinated with the sky and everything it holds but it is hard to imagine how far away the planets, sun and moon really are. Luckily the Lethbridge Astronomy Society has brought our solar system to our level with a 1:253,000,000 scale ratio model throughout the city — and beyond!
