Attached, find a diagram of the solar system, from Moore's Navigator of 1824.
The 11 planets, in order from the sun, are present. I shall repeat them here:
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Juno, Vesta, Ceres, Pallas, Jupiter, Saturn and Georgnim Sidus.
Neptune and Pluto not yet discovered, and therefore not shown. (Pluto not a planet, recently demoted.) Juno, Vesta, Ceres and Pallas prior to demotion. Uranus as Georgnim Sidus.
