Isn't the galaxy an atom, not the solar system

I've noticed that people have said that the solar system is an atom and our planets are electrons. Now, that can't be true because we've figured out that the Bohr model of an atom is incorrect, and we now study the Wave-Mechanical model, where electrons are floating around in a cloud. Has anyone ever seen a picture of a galaxy? It looks exactly like the Wave-Mechanical atom model, not to mention very applicable. If we looked at a galaxy, we would find dozens of solar systems floating around in a cloud around a giant ball of energy, like electrons around a nucleus. When we move outward from a galaxy, we find dozens of other galaxies, and clouds of dust and matter that could quite simply make up more matter that exists in a world that is more extravagant and impossibly huge that anyone could ever comprehend. So I say that when we look at atom, we are looking down at an entire galaxy.

Actually the idea isn't so far-fetched, and there may be a viable relationship between the electron cloud of an atom, and the many solar systems of a full blown galaxy. What you have to do is both scale the atomic nuclei up to an average size of a typical star, then compare the distances of the planets orbiting that star with the calculated electron orbits within the electron cloud. Remember to take into account that, in the scaling process, laws of nature will make a transition from quantum to classical. You have to learn the mathematics governing quantum mechanics before you can adequately determine where that "transition" point occurs within the scaling process. Gravity, is a good example.

I encourage you to explore this idea (model) further. But the concept will not take on any fruitful meaning until you can describe the whole scaling process in terms of equations for quantum mechanics and general relativity.

Best regards.

That is a very interesting perspective, and one that needs to be carefully considered. There are fractal patterns throughout nature based upon quantum functions and chaos (noise and uncertainty) in the initial conditions. Won't show up accept by way of advanced mathematical analysis.
