The height of the orrery is approximately 19. The centre of Pluto will span to approximate 18 plus Pluto's moons so the total reach would be closer to 20". The Sun is turned from brass bar. The Earth is ink printed onto sandstone (I have these made for me) and the planets are painted wooden spheres.
