A 'to scale' image of Kerbin and it's Natural Satellites

[Boex]

All pictures were taken in game from an altitude of 1 million meters to show the size differences between the bodies. Edited using Paint.net and Serif.

80% of information from the KSP wiki. The rest from ma brain.

I intend to continue this for the new planets and their moons in the next version!

Hope you like it or find it useful/interesting, and try to ignore the differing lighting angles

Feedback always welcome!

Nice idea, and nicely done! Plus it sums up most of the stuff one need to plan missions and design ships...

Ever considered creating one of those very, very long pictures with planetary sizes AND distances to scale? (like this one for our SolSys) That'd be amazing!

Nice.

+rep to you!

[Boex]

Why thank you!

Why thank you!

Do you plan on continuing this chart when planets come out next update?

Actually, Sillisko gave us some info on Eve:

I'll help you guys out a little bit, here are the latest stats on Eve:

(may change, they've been changed up quite a bit so far)

Radius: 700km

Surface gravity: 1.7g

Atmosphere density: 5x kerbin

Rotation period: 22.5 hours

Semimajor axis: 7440000km

Eccentricity: 0.03

Inclination: 0.025

You can also do Eve's moon: Gilly!

Characteristics

Equatorial Radius: 13km

Mass: 1.242e17 kg

Rough Density: 13.49 g/cm^3

Surface Gravity: 4.905e-2 m/s^2 or 0.005 g

Gravitational Parameter: 8.28945e-3 km^3/s^2

Escape Velocity: 35.711 m/s

Orbital Characteristics

Parent Body: Eve

Actually that's on the picture of gilly. It's Bop, the moon of The gas giant. I will try to find the proof and post it in a second

I do indeed!

I saw these figures, but they may not be the same when 0.17 comes out...

Also, I'd need to take an image of the bodies from 1 million metres so the scale is correct.

I'll probably do one for each planetary system (eg. Eve and Gilly, or the Gas Giant and it's 4 moons) and then have one with the just the planets, and no moons, so LavalessPlanet (Charr), Eve, Kerbin, DesertPlanet, and the unamed Gas Giant.
