Introducing our most ambitious educational wall chart yet — a dazzling, data-packed tour of our entire Solar System, designed to fire up the imaginations of space-mad children and young teens aged 7 to 15!
WHAT MAKES THIS WALL CHART EXCEPTIONAL
Every one of the eight planets has its own richly illustrated panel covering:
- Diameter
- Distance from the Sun
- Orbital and rotation periods
- Confirmed moon count
- Surface temperature range
- And one truly spectacular fact designed to stop a child in their tracks.
But the chart doesn't stop at the planets. You'll also find:
• The Sun — type, age, composition, core temperature (15 million°C!), solar wind speed and how long it will keep shining
• Earth's Moon — diameter, distance, tidal effects, lunar phases and the story of Apollo 11
• All five recognised dwarf planets — Pluto, Eris, Ceres, Makemake and Haumea
• The Asteroid Belt — what it is, where it is and why it exists
• Comets — structure, origins and Halley's Comet, due back in 2061
• The Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud — the vast, icy boundaries of our solar system
• A Space Exploration Timeline — from Sputnik in 1957 to the James Webb Space Telescope
• Scale comparisons that will genuinely astonish — did you know one million Earths fit inside the Sun?
• A glossary of 11 key scientific terms — from Astronomical Unit to Supernova
DESIGNED BY CURIOUS MINDS
We're a science-loving family business from the west coast of Scotland, and we made this chart for the children we had in mind when we founded Curious Minds — the ones who ask endless questions, the ones who stay up late wondering what's out there, and the ones whose teachers say "she's always going to ask why."
This chart tries to answer some of those questions, and — we hope — raises a dozen more.
Printed on premium paper with a deep space background, semi-realistic illustrated planets, glowing orbital paths and bold, highly readable typography. Beautiful in a bedroom, classroom, study or science corner. Aligned with the KS2 National Curriculum Earth and Space topic. Suitable for home, school and homeschool use. An outstanding educational science gift for children aged 7 and above.
All facts and figures verified against NASA, ESA and IAU data.
A2 SIZE — MADE TO IMPRESS ON ANY WALL At 420 × 594 mm, this is a proper statement poster.
