The Scale of the Universe - WhoWhatWhy The Scale of the Universe - WhoWhatWhy

Science

Get a little perspective on your problems—and those of us all. This amazing aid gives a whole new appreciation of how big our planet is, and how tiny, in the scheme of things.

Not long ago, we wrote about Tennessee’s interest in promoting non-scientific explanations for major phenomena. The state is catering to the strong sentiment for religion-based teachings.

Whatever you believe created it all—if anything did—you will want to see this amazing data visualization of our tiny planet in relationship to…everything else, both much tinier things, and things, much, much grander in scale.

Come here, and scroll, baby, scroll. (Or just leave it on, and enjoy the pleasantly hypnotic music and wonder of it all.)
