PRESQUE ISLE, Maine – To mark the 20th anniversary of the Maine Solar System Model, University of Maine at Presque Isle officials are announcing plans for a crucial addition: a 25-foot-tall three-dimensional model of the sun.
The Maine Solar System — the largest scale model of the solar system in the western hemisphere, and the second largest such model in the world — stretches for nearly 100 miles along U.S. Route 1 between UMPI's Pullen-Folsom Hall in Presque Isle and Topsfield, located in Washington County.
