Maybe this is just me, but there is a major flaw in the image, the orbits of the planets are not perfect circles as represented in the image, Kepler proved this in 1609, are we really more than 400 yrs. behind the times?
 * I wouldn't worry too much about it. The planets and their orbits are not to scale and the fabric of space should be distorted around the different massive objects.--Matt D (talk) 10:21, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * The image is "pretty," but full of inaccuracies. It seems to me that it is overall a poor image, since it reinforces misconceptions more than it educates. 74.235.28.214 (talk) 00:21, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree.--Matt D (talk) 20:41, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
