Zayne's family just sent me the coolest science interactive graphic. Check it out by clicking on
the image below. Once it opens, click START and then use the slider at the
bottom to help explain our place in this vast universe.
Using objects varying in size from 10-35 meters to 9.3 x 1028 meters, the tool attempts to help viewers grasp of the size of the universe in relation to familiar (and unfamiliar) objects, land masses, planets and the like.

Amazing, right?
When asked about this project, Cary replied, "My seventh grade science teacher showed us a size comparison video on cells, and I thought it was fascinating. I decided to make my own interactive version that included a much larger range of sizes," said Cary in an email forwarded by his mother. "It was not a school project -- just for fun. However, my science teacher loved it so much she showed [it] to the class! My brother, Michael, helped me put it on the internet."
What do you think of Cary's project
and the enormous size of our universe?
