How come these abbreviated models of the Solar System portray the planets as having slightly different sizes? Why don't they all look the same size?
The question is worth asking, because the ACTUAL size difference of these planets is INSANE and IMMENSE. The moons of Jupiter are so huge that you could fit approximately 14 Earths inside Ganymede, 19 Earths inside Callisto, 43 Earths inside Io, and 68 Earths inside Europa.
Given this INSANE size difference that these models don't even TRY to represent, what is there purpose other than to convince 3rd graders (and in some cases 12th graders and beyond) that the Solar System is a tightknit neighborhood, when the reality is that the space between the Earth and our moon is so great that you could fit literally every planet in our solar solar system between the Earth and the Moon and still have some space left over.
I didn't learn that shit until I was 20, watching a Veritasium video. I know Bill Nye did a good presentation where he got on a bike and drove the proportional multi-mile distances between coin sized planets, but how come shit like this isn't more widely talked about on the grade school level. Much more important than say the ORDER of the planets.
I remember my mom trying to get me to remember the ORDER of the planets and one of her mnemonics was that Venus starts with a V and if you make a V with your hand it's the number TWO.
What's the point in learning shit like that when you have NO FUCKING SENSE OF SCALE AT ALL.

Its a conspiracy.

Because saying you could fit an IMMENSE, INSANE 27 (TWENTY SEVEN WOW) planets within the volume of a planet which is merely triple the diameter on paper is just the definition for sphere volumes.
All of the smart kids (not you) learned this at the same time, seamlessly.

What country are you from? I'm in America, and you can mock me as a fool if you like, but I can stump fuckers around me (who are generally intelligent enough to be preoccupied with business matters or investments /etc) who don't understand that the reason we can't land on Jupiter is that the gravity is so immense it would flatten you to a pancake if you could hypothetically land on it's flat surface, but oh wait, it doesn't even have a flat surface because it's a gas giant and it makes as much sense as landing on the sun.

If my brain has rotted from popsci, why would I want to rot it further?

It's the jews. They know those planets are much bigger and they hide it from you so you don't go there and collect all the resources because they want all the resources so they can use them to expand the federal reserve and bribe politicians to get the CIA to vaccinate the military to make them transsexual so they cut their penises off so the jews can harvest their foreskins and build a foreskin shrine in the synagogue of satan to summon moloch who will allow safe passage for black people to invade our countries and breed with whites to turn us into a subordinate hybrid slave race the jews will insert into the matrix and will harvest infinite digital foreskins from us for eternity. Christ is king.

You should rely less on retarded ai slop and do the math yourself

Venus is better than Mars because has similar gravity to Earth.

Sounds like bullshit, let's look for an image with the correct scales... huh welll what a surprise
>With an equatorial diameter of 1,940 miles (3,100 kilometers), Europa is about 90% the size of Earth's Moon.
