Sun and planets, size comparison
Alien planetary system. Artwork of an extrasolar Earth-like planet (centre right) orbiting its parent star. Another planet (black dot) is seen transiting the star. One method for finding alien planets is to detect the small drop in starlight caused by a planet passing in front of its parent star as seen from Earth. This is referred to as a transit. Several existing planet-hunting project use this method. This star is an active one, with sunspots visible and solar flares and prominences erupting from its surface

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork captures the awe-inspiring beauty and vastness of an alien planetary system. In this mesmerizing print, we witness a size comparison of celestial bodies, starting with the radiant sun at the center-right. The star's active nature is evident through its sunspots, solar flares, and erupting prominences that dance across its surface. Our attention is drawn to an extrasolar Earth-like planet gracefully orbiting its parent star. This distant world holds secrets yet to be discovered, offering a glimpse into the possibility of life beyond our own planet. A black dot signifies another planet in transit, showcasing one method used by astronomers to detect alien planets - observing the subtle drop in starlight as they pass in front of their parent stars from our vantage point on Earth. The artwork also presents a visual feast of other celestial wonders within this cosmic ballet. From rocky planets like Mercury and Mars to gas giants such as Jupiter and Saturn with their magnificent rings, each body represents a unique piece in the grand puzzle of our universe. As we marvel at this illustration crafted by Detlev van Ravenswaay for Science Photo Library, it serves as a reminder that there is so much more out there waiting to be explored and understood. It ignites our curiosity about what lies beyond our familiar solar system and encourages us to continue pushing boundaries in astrophysics and planetary science.
