It has a diameter of about 1,392,684 km (865,374 mi), which is approximately 109 times larger than Earth, and its mass (1.989Ã1030 kilograms, approximately 330,000 times the mass of Earth) accounts for about 99.86% of the total mass of the Solar System.he largest planet in our solar system is Jupiter. is 90,000 miles(140,000 km) in diameter.
