In scale models of the planets based on their diameters, the two planets that should be the closest in diameter are **Earth and Venus**.
Earth's diameter is approximately 12,742 km, while Venus's diameter is about 12,104 km. This makes their sizes relatively similar compared to the other pairs mentioned, which have much larger differences in diameter.
