  We present two state-of-the-art models of the solar system, one corresponding
to the present day and one to the Archean Eon 3.5 billion years ago. Each model
contains spatial and spectral information for the star, the planets, and the
interplanetary dust, extending to 50 AU from the sun and covering the
wavelength range 0.3 to 2.5 micron. In addition, we created a spectral image
cube representative of the astronomical backgrounds that will be seen behind
deep observations of extrasolar planetary systems, including galaxies and Milky
Way stars. These models are intended as inputs to high-fidelity simulations of
direct observations of exoplanetary systems using telescopes equipped with
high-contrast capability. They will help improve the realism of observation and
instrument parameters that are required inputs to statistical observatory yield
calculations, as well as guide development of post-processing algorithms for
telescopes capable of directly imaging Earth-like planets.
