Planets are turning out to be so common that to show all the planets in our galaxy, this chart would have to be nested in itself--with each planet replaced by a copy of the chart--at least three levels deep.
Description
Here's the large version. [1] This one is an interesting one because I was expecting to go to the large version and see names and locations on every planet. But, no, this is a relatively simple comic that relies only on scale to get its point across. The point being that there are tons and tons of planets in our solar system galaxy and we need to learn about every one as soon as possible.
