Cheers the 1st version when it came out last year became my favourite thing on the internet for ages lol. Whenever I was with a group of people and the situation turned into a bit of a youtube party I would bring it out. Now I've got a new thing to show!

Thank you for this.

Nice.
What to they mean by "Total Human Height" ? It appears in after you zoom out a little from the scale of sun.

Ryan_m_b

I saw that too. I'm guessing that means the height of all 7 billion of us which off the top of my head would work out to 14 million kilometres or 45 light seconds.

This animation was so cool!!!

Hmmm, somewhere it says "Some neutrinos go faster than light". That's a very dangerous thing to say right now. I would prefer if they didn't mention it...

Two thumbs up Ryan. I have another one similar, but with real images, I will see if I can find and post it.

That is awesome!
Yes. Cosmic Zoom. We watched it back in school. Very cool.


I like the additional elements this one brings to the table - the familiar objects for scale, and the interactivity.

I looked it up, what I saw was newer, a year or two ago tops, I liked how you could scale ryan's animation, here is another one I found, a youtube video.

When I clicked on your link I just got the main page of 4channel with no obvious link to the animation.

Here's a couple more:

I still get... goosebumps by watching these and other documentaries and I'm almost turning 25. Does that make me immature? :P
