Superzoom: From The Universe to a Quark Having a bad day? Spilled marinara on your Great American Novel? Lost your glasses again? (Check on top of your head) - Don't worry, get some perspective. Like a visualization of the Universe that focuses in on the Milky Way, our Sun, Earth, etc.

  • Ahhh- "ten" not "10". Stupid dumb non-intuitive poopy search-hole. Although, fwiw, the video I posted is *not* in those links. Your Bashi, I move that the FPP be allowed to stand!
  • Your Bashi! Mr. Best is making a mockery of this blog! I move to Eek.
  • But, what's beyond the quarks?
  • quantum foam, perhaps
  • I went out for a pint and came home to Frogstar B.
  • Mon Capitaine! I am surprised you didn't reference that Canadian icon The NFB and their 1968 hand drawn version Cosmic Zoom! For the record I missed Powers of 10 the first time 'round, so I second the motion to keep.
  • If you zoom in close enough, will we see a notice that this page is Java? For those of us for whom Java loads pretty dern slowly and don't like having to wait to hit the Back Button?
  • Still, a really groovy app. Imagine my surprise when it zoomed in just 150 miles northwest of my hometown. Boo FSU Seminoles! Yay UF Gators!
