Anchorage Light Speed Planet Walk is a unique museum experience located in Anchorage, Alaska, offering a scale model of our solar system.

This innovative attraction allows visitors to walk at the speed of light, experiencing the relative size and distance of the planets from the Sun. The carefully designed scale – one step equaling the distance light travels in one second – provides an engaging and educational journey through our cosmic neighborhood.

Visitors can explore the Sun station, learn about the evolution of the solar system, and then navigate the planet stations along 5th Avenue and the Coastal Trail. The Anchorage Light Speed Planet Walk provides a memorable and thought-provoking way to understand our place in the universe, perfect for families and space enthusiasts alike.

Created by Eli Menaker, a 2004 graduate of Service High School, this project is maintained by The Sage Group and offers a captivating blend of science and art.
