This solar system was created at the correct scale so that the pupils could get a feel for the proportions in our solar system. I have also used the surface structures of the planets, which are only visible on the larger planets. You can also light up the planets with LEDs to make them even more impressive. My pupils were surprised at how small the Earth actually is in our solar system.
I attached the Saturn rings with fishing line (there are holes in Saturn for this)
