It was built to celebrate the millenium and is an actual physical model of the Solar System with the planets in their correct position on millenium night.
This solar dross is then organised by the electro magnetic fields of the system into what we see as planets.
It is interesting that the first planets found beyond the solar system were discovered around a pulsar.

Each of the planets and major moons in our solar system is briefly described and illustrated with pictures from NASA spacecraft.
These planets beyond our solar system are indirectly detected because astronomers observe the wobble of a star as it rotates.
It's Solar System Simulator allows users to see any of the planets or moons in the solar system as seen from the earth.

Build a Solar System This site shows you exactly what sizes to make your planets to make a correct scale model of the solar system.
Solar System Objects : 48 minor planets (and a few other solar system objects) were included in the Hipparcos Catalogue observations.
Several planets have been discovered beyond our solar system and many more are expected to be identified as technology extends astronomy's field of vision.
