Greetings from outer space! To celebrate the @TheBookerPrizes win of @SolstadDag223's novel "Orbital", we took the book from our library to the Planetenweg (Planet Walk) in Göttingen, a series of monuments of the celestial bodies of our solar system! Look how tiny Earth is! 🌍

Under the headline "Erde" (that is, German for "Earth") is an artistic rendition of "Earth" as a tiny metal ball between two sheets of glass. An added blue arrow points to the ball because it is really small

The artistic rendition of the sun is a big yellow metal ball. Below is the monument of the Planetenweg, explaining the artwork is dedicated to all children and to Göttingen's partner town Toruń, home of astronomer Copernikus.
