Via Grasping Reality with both hands, a breathtaking set of images of the other planets placed at the same distance as our moon:

Great pictures, amazing what imagination can do. That last one looked a little too close for comfort.

Great link. Just looked at the pictures with my kids. Saturn was their favorite and everyone was surprised at how small Mercury is. I know Pluto is no longer considered to be a planet, but is it even smaller than Mercury?

Jupiter and Saturn are my favourites.
