A diagram representing the largest bodies of the Asteroid Belt found between Mars and Jupiter. The relatively small size of the bodies implies irregular shapes. A portion of the Earth appears in the background of the diagram with the correct relative size. Ceres is by far the largest body of the Asteroid Belt. Ceres is roughly spherical and is now considered a dwarf planet like Pluto or Eris.

The mosaic above represents a view of the Earth, Saturn and its rings and the Moon at scale. The relative distance between the Earth and the Moon is respected. If we put Saturn into the space between the Earth and its natural satellite The Moon, the Gas Giant almost covers the entire space. The bright rings of Saturn rich in water ice cover a huge volume and a huge area but their mass is in fact relatively limited. If we compacted the rings into a sphere, the sphere would only represent a small body whose diameter is only about 309 kilometers which is less than the mean diameter of Mimas for instance.

A mosaic representing Titan and Pluto at scale. The original view of Titan was obtained from the Cassini spacecraft during its mission in the Saturn system. The original image of Pluto was taken from the New Horizons spacecraft during its historic flyby of 2015. The surface of Titan can't be discerned from outer space in the visible spectrum. The infrared or near-infrared eyes of the Cassini orbiter can reveal surface details of the giant moon of Saturn.
