The world’s largest model of our planetary system

Post by Rudi »

    
Argus; I never knew this fact about your country... :thumbup:

The Sweden Solar System

Have you visited any of the planets or other celestial bodies?
Regards,
Rudi

If your absence does not affect them, your presence didn't matter.

I heard about it some years ago, but I have not visited any of the planets or celestial bodies since they were added [what a weird sentence :grin:]. But I've been inside the sun ..., the Globe Arena, "Globen", and been at some other places.

Not too bad, quite comfortable. But that was before the Swedish solar system. :grin:
Later, some 7-10 years ago, they added elevators on the outside of the globe, Skyview. I don't understand it, you can't see anything of what's going on in the arena.

That is a weird sentence, rather before its time! :laugh: :clapping:

In the style of Groucho Marx with cigar flipping:

"I know some celestial bodies I'd like to visit!"

Sorry, but I just couldn't resist.
