- Demoted to dwarf planet status in 2006, to the continued frustration of people like myself. Captain Video (talk) 20:33, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- Okay. 172.69.34.186 02:11, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
What about exoplanets? Wilh3lm (talk) 20:49, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- They're not in our solar system. bubblegum-talk|contribs 20:57, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- We should rectify that ASAP! A few more planets slotted between/woven through the current set would make for some interesting possibilities... 141.101.99.207 22:52, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
Surprised no one has gotten technical and talked about how Earth is not drawn to be 7.8 billion times larger than the others (which would be around 300,000px wide) , meaning it's still off the same way other depictions tend to be. Trlkly (talk) 05:51, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe it's a logarithmic cartogram. Log scales are generally needed when differences in sizes are so vast. Barmar (talk) 06:01, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
Needs to be amended to note that this reflects only HUMAN life detected on these planets. Just because we haven't found any yet doesn't mean that Jupiter might not be housing billions of Jovians, or Mars isn't teeming with Martians. RAGBRAIvet (talk) 06:53, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
bad map projection?
IMHO, this also qualify as kind of a bad map projection (in the wider sense of a population density-anamorphic cartogram) 141.101.77.160 21:11, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
