This is a little collage I did to show all the planets and sun to scale. Pluto might be invisible due to flickr's size limit, and I put emphasis on the inner planets and our Moon, but what you're gonna do, they're like a grain of sand in comparison with a football... =D
And if you think that sun is big, look at VY Canis Majoris:

The view of Uranus as seen in the two degree field of view of a 25x100 binocular. The 25x100 picked up a +9.48 magnitude star, which is very close to the practical limits of this binocular under my light-polluted city sky.
Also had a good view of the Andromeda Galaxy in the 25x100. Despite the less than perfect sky conditions, the Galaxy really stood out well. | hedbavny posted a photo:

Birthplace of Aphrodite
Gaia (Mother Earth) asked one of her sons, Cronus, to mutilate his father, Uranus (Sky). Cronus cut off Uranus' testicles and threw them into the sea. A white foam appeared from which a maiden arose, the waves first taking her to Kythera and then bringing her to Cyprus. The maiden, named Aphrodite, went to the assembly of gods from Cyprus. The Romans widely referred to her as Venus.
Aphrodite attracted a large cult following in Pafos, which was eventually crushed by the Romans. This is evident from the Sanctuary of Aphrodite in Old Pafos kouklia.
Aphrodite was known for lustful love more than romantic love.
A myth states if you swim around the Aphrodite Rock, you will be blessed with eternal beauty. (wiki) | carolina terp posted a photo:

I walked all the way too Uranus. Actually, I pretty much finished the whole thing besides Pluto at its furthest distance from the Sun. |
