''Prizemljeno Sunce'' by [[Ivan Kožarić]] [http://www.hazu.hr/Akademici/IKozaric.html] was first displayed in 1971 by the building of the [[Croatian National Theatre]], and since then changed location a few times. Since 1994 it has been situated in the Bogovićeva street. It is simply a bronze sphere around 2 meters in diameter. Somewhere in early 2000s [[Davor Preis]] additionally placed 9 models of the [[planets]] of the [[solar system]] around Zagreb, to complete a model of the entire solar system. The models' sizes as well as their distances from the ''Prizemljeno Sunce'' are all in the same scale as the ''Prizemljeno Sunce'' itself. Preis did this installation with very little or no publicity, so his installation isn't well known among citizens of Zagreb. On a few occasions individuals or small groups of people "discovered" that there was a model of the solar system in Zagreb. One of the earliest efforts to find all of the planets was started in November of 2004 on the [[web forum]] of the student section of [[Croatian Physics Society]] [http://rasprave.fizika.org/viewtopic.php?t=1212&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0]. ==External links== {{commons|Zagreb_solar_system}} * [http://www.daworp.com/ Web site of the project] * [http://www.phy.hr/~mpozek/planeti/ The photos and the locations of all "grounded planets"] * [http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/69e89/5dcc2/a A page on virtualtourist.com about Nine Views] * [http://adi.fizika.org/mambo/index.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid=34&catid=18 Photos of all the planets by members of AD Infinitum astronomical society] [[Category:Zagreb]] [[Category:Croatian art]] [[Category:Solar System]] [[hr:Zagrebački Sunčev sustav]]
