Planet and Star Size Comparison in HD

Don't know how many here have seen this, but if you haven't, prepare to blow your mind.


Make sure you click through to watch the video and click on the HD button to show it in detail. Really is impossible to fathom things on that scale.

While watching for some reason I kept singing this song in my head:

Still my favorite "size" video. It goes all the way to the known edge of the universe, and THEN it zooms all the way to the smallest known particle.

Re: Planet and Star Size Comparison in HD

I feel so vulnerable. Actually, it's kind of scary in a way. In the midst of all those galaxies...I still say.........we are NOT alone. Thank you Bamboo
