The center of the solar system is not the center of the Planet Trail. This gives you an excellent sense of the sizes and dimensions of space. While the Earth is only the size of a pinhead and the much smaller Moon is only two steps away, the path extends almost 5 km to the outer planets!

Very nice circular route, at certain points the path was symbolically marked with the planets of our solar system. Very interesting 👍
