An attempt to show the scale of things from the tiniest to the galactic. Wow.

Ping! You all should see this. Our God is SOOO AWSOME!

Back to our microscopic, tiny little world.

It’s like National Geographic, without the junk science.

There are really giant earthworms 7 meters long? I thought that was just a bad Kevin Bacon movie.

"And, uh.. a cop pulls me over. And he makes me get out, he looks at me and he says, "Heyyy.. are you small"? I said, "No-o-o! I'm not!" He said, "Well, I'm gonna have to measure you." They have this little test they give you - they give you a balloon.. and if you can get inside of it, they know you're small. Now, I've already talked it over with the cast - they've been working all week, it's a tough thing to do, come out here live.

 

Immediately after the show, we're all gonna go out.. and get really small! "

Well, yeah, but they call it PPS there.

For later.

Wow! That is very, very cool!

Is this Flash?

Whatever it is, it’s excellent.

A lot of different jpgs had to be cobbled together.

How is the estimated size of the universe larger than the observable universe?

What is the basis of that specific estimate (900YM) if we can’t see past 140YM?

Just curious.

Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.
