What radioactive source did the Geiger and Marsden use in the scattering experiment?

In the Rutherford's nuclear model of the atom, the nucleus (radius about $10^{-15} \;m$ ) is analogous to the sun about which the electron move in orbit (radius $\approx 10^{-10} \;m$ ) like the earth orbits around the sun. If the dimensions of the solar system had the same proportions as those of the atom, would the earth be closer to or farther away from the sun than actually it is? The radius of earth's orbit is about $1.5 \times 10^{11} \;m.$ The radius of sun is taken as $7 \times 10^{8}\;m$
