The All-New Scale of the Universe

Guys, I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly. What you’re about to play with is going to blow your brains right out of the back of your head. Proceed with caution. Abandon all productivity ye who enter here.

Cary and Michael Huang present an updated edition of the “Scale of the Universe” interactive web portal. In it, you can zoom from quarks to cells to planets to the scale of the entire known cosmos, complete with accurate powers of ten. You can learn more about the objects you encounter by clicking on any of them.

Of course, words alone can’t capture how awesome and fun this is to play with, so I made a little screen-capture video so you can experience what the journey into the infinite will feel like when you go play.

Have fun.

When using this, you also have to go WOOOOOOOOOOOOO the entire time. For science.
