A couple with a notable size difference: the Earth and the Moon
This photomontage combines images of the Earth and the Moon, recorded in 1992 by the Galileo space probe. The diameters of the two celestial bodies are more-or-less shown to scale; in reality, however, the distance between the Earth and the Moon is about 30 times the diameter of the Earth.
