How big is the Earth compared to the solar system?
The Solar System is about 36 billion times larger than Earth (3.6 X 10^10).
How many Earths could fit in the solar system?
1.3 million Earths
The sun is large enough that approximately 1.3 million Earths could fit inside. Want to check our math? The volume of the sun is 1.41 x 1018 km3, while the volume of Earth is 1.08 x 1012 km3. If you divide the volume of the sun by the volume of the Earth, you get that roughly 1.3 million Earths can fit inside the sun.
Is Earth the largest in the solar system?
While Earth is only the fifth largest planet in the solar system, it is the only world in our solar system with liquid water on the surface. Just slightly larger than nearby Venus, Earth is the biggest of the four planets closest to the Sun, all of which are made of rock and metal.
What is bigger than a universe?
No, the universe contains all solar systems, and galaxies. Our Sun is just one star among the hundreds of billions of stars in our Milky Way Galaxy, and the universe is made up of all the galaxies – billions of them.
What is bigger than the world?
Nope, the Sun is much, much bigger than the Earth. The Sun is the largest, most massive object in the Solar System by far. It accounts for 99.86% of the mass of the Solar System, with most of the remaining mass taken up by Jupiter, which is the largest planet in the Solar System.
Is Sun bigger than all planets?
Although the Sun looks small from Earth, it is really much, much bigger than our planet (and any other planet in the solar system)….Big, Bigger, Biggest.

Can all planets fit between Earth and the moon?
NO, planets of our solar system, with or without Pluto, cannot fit within the mean lunar distance. An additional 3,500 km is needed to squeeze in Neptune (5,900 km to include Pluto). Supermoon fans know that the distance between the Earth and the Moon varies.
Is a star bigger than a planet?
Generally, stars are indeed bigger than planets. In fact all the stars you can see without a telescope are much bigger than the giant planet Jupiter. It is nuclear fusion that produces the light and heat from most stars.
