Orders of magnitude (density)

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki

Skylab measured several orders of magnitude of the Sun's density (top scale: 10−18 to 10−6 g⋅cm−3, equivalent to 10−15 to 10−3 kg⋅m−3) at different temperatures and heights above its surface. See here for meanings of extra lines in the graph.
