So planets are tiny compared to the distance they are from each other, at least according to that YouTube video I watched. Are electrons and neutrons similarly sized and spaced? And if so is that some E=MCsquared type stuff?

[Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/c19wx/proportionally_are_the_distances_between_stars/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) is what my quick response is for the “distance…”

No if we scale the planets to the size of an electron they will be very distant from each other, about 0.4inch. While in reality they are 3.937 × 10^-9 that’s more than 100.000 smaller.

E=MC^2 is to calculate how much energy an “X” thing has, it has nothing to do with the distance between point A and point B.
