Interactive Scale of the UniverseOn the order of Charles and Ray Eames’ Powers of Ten, here’s an interactive graphic that helps one visually comprehend relationships of scale. Move the giant slider to zoom in and out to view the relative size of various things ranging from seriously microscopic out to seriously far-off deep space. Great for kids too.

Pro tip: turn your sound down or off unless you’re into space-age muzak.

    This is my new favorite websites. I keep coming back. I have just linked the Interactive Scale of the Universe to a website I’m developing. It will be on a page of Visual Organizers using Mathematics. I will encourage my readers to visit your site. Judy Fishel
