Size It Up answer: August 29

The five Mixed silhouettes for August 29, 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 credit card (8.56 cm) to Jupiter (143,000 km). The widest gap was round 4, Credit Card against Bengal Tiger, at 33×; the closest call was round 2, Gorilla against Orca, only 4.1× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
