Size It Up answer: August 3

The five Mixed silhouettes for August 3, with the true sizes. If you have not played yet, this page is a spoiler — play these five first, then come back to argue with the numbers.

This pre-launch puzzle ran from a honeybee (1.3 cm) to Saturn (273,600 km). The widest gap was round 2, European Rabbit against Whale Shark, at 30×; the closest call was round 1, Concert Grand Piano against Holstein Cow, only 1.1× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
