I am going to live in Antarctica soon, so I'm afraid I won't be able to answer any more questions about the Solar System.

I am seeking information on how individuals can help space scientists by making their p.c. available in a vast search in in space. I do not know the name of this search. Can you please help?
I think you are talking about SETI @ home, which is a scientific experiment that uses Internet-connected computers in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI).
You can participate by running a free program that downloads and analyzes radio telescope data.

This is a great site, I'm surprised that I haven't stumbled across it before.
I am currently working on a site somewhat similiar to this one, except the focus of my site will be on the messier objects - all 110 of them :)
Keep up the good work,this site is wonderful!

The scale model is an incredible demonstration of the vast distances we're trying to comprehend. To think I was planning on showing some kids the sizes involved using footballs and oranges and a playing field! Time for a re-think!
There are loads of different ways to try to visualise the Solar System. The Solar System Scale Model Meta Page contains a pretty complete list of resources on the subject.
