What a great find Freez. Thank you for bringing it to this thread.

This is an excellent demonstration of universal scale. I noticed that based on this range, InfiniteNow wasn't too far off with his positioning of humans on the original scale I presented. Left of center. But this only goes to a Femtometer.

How much smaller is a plank length again?

Yup... I was wondering why I have a headache. Then I open this thread

Seriously though - that is crazy cool freezy. I think, Reason, google's saying a plank length is 10 million trillion times smaller than a femtometer so that 10E19 (or 10 million trillion) planks would fit in a femtometer. Migraine permitting, I'll find a source checkingthat.

Very, Very, Freezy

If you like this (and who among us hypographers wouldn’t?), you should be aware of the long heritage of similar works, from the Kees Boeke's 1957 photographic and hand-illustrated book, Cosmic View, its 1968 film adaptation “cosmic zoom”, the 1977 film “Powers of Ten”, the 1996 IMAX film “Cosmic Voyage”, and many “enhanced remixes” and variations in many media.

Nikon’s Flash entry in the genre is quite cool. I expect and look forward to much more coolness of this kind, written in more and cooler media.

It goes to show us how little we are.

Man has come to know his position and size in the universe.

Re: Universal Scale

I saw this vid along time ago and finally found it.

It is a good depiction of the scale of things.

Make sure you watch the second half too, and in full screen of course.
