Ira Klotzko, a computer programmer in Jersey City, has finally decided to get a tattoo, after waiting until he was 38. Now, here’s the interesting part. Because of his life-long love of astronomy, he’s decided to have the entire solar system tattooed on his stomach. He says he thought of the idea while lying in bed one night, then gave himself a year to decide if he still wanted to do it. He jokes to New York Post that “it’s really accurate because the universe is also expanding.”

The Sun/Earth/Moon in the middle, surrounded by the other 8 planets (YES, Pluto is included). An asteroid running down the side of it, with “…And it makes me wonder” a quote from Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven”.

Just FYI: American Academy of Dermatology says that about 25% of Americans 18 - 50 have received tattoos.
