A nice activity which requires students to perform calculations (multiplication, addition, subtraction) with numbers in standard form to find information regarding planets (and Pluto!) in the solar system. It also allows for students to practise writing numbers in correct standard form.
Note, I take no credit for the idea for this resource found by another user on TES, but have simply provided an edited version with regards to presentation.

My top set year 9's really enjoyed this activity.
Great although I think even I would struggle to do this without a calculator in a competitive environment.
A very nice activity, thank you; well presented & always great to have real data.
