  17. Final thought – how far? How far are each of these objects from the Earth? Can you put them in order of distance, starting with the Earth at the centre? Moon Proxima Centauri (a star) Andromeda (a galaxy) Sun Neptune

  18. Final thought – how far? How far are each of these objects from the Earth? Can you put them in order of distance, starting with the Earth at the centre? Moon = 384 000 km Sun = 150 000 000 km Neptune = 4 500 000 000 km Proxima Centauri =4.0 x 1013 km (4.3 ly) Andromeda = 2.5 x 1019 km (2.5 million ly)
