Solar System Model
A 40-mile long model of the solar system is currently being built in northern Maine. The project is the brainchild of a geology professor at the University of Maine and it’s believed to be the worldÕs largest scale model of the sun and planets. Maine Public Radio’s Matthew Algeo has our story.
