Astronomical curiosity of a day #1

rudaswinia (42)in #science • 8 years ago (edited)

The Sun has around 985 times the volume of the gas giant planet - Jupiter:

On the other hand, it would take over 1321 Earths to fill up the volume of Jupiter:

It gives 1.3 million planets the size of the Earth to fill up the Sun :) Amazing.
