I stumbled upon this by chance...... but it really blew my mind to try to comprehend...

The Scale of the Universe

Zoom from the edge of the universe to the quantum foam of spacetime!

ooooow this is cool

how far down the line od u want ot go :d

I thought it was interesting how human size is actually more than half way past the large size of the scale.

It’s things like this that make me think….with a universe so large, with entire galaxies that dwarf ours scattered liberally, I find the possibility of there being no other life in the universe a ridiculous notion. I’m not sure if I’m barking up the wrong tree, but surely if the outer edges of the known universe are 93,000,000,000 light years away, and given that the picture we are seeing is that old, then essentially whatever resides on those outer edges is 93,000,000,000 light years ahead of us (I know it’s a distance in essence), and since what we know about world, the universe and the physics that order it has only been gleaned within the last 2000yrs or so, is it really that far-fetched to think that somewhere that has had 500,000+ years of evolution more than us would come up with a way to warp space-time, master worm holes, harness the power of black holes etc?

I love programs like these. They make it so much easier to comprehend and understand the intricacy, beauty, and harmony of reality. Plus, it makes learning fun! I can't tell you how much easier molecular biology classes would be (or how much more detail could go into the lectures) if programs and videos like these were integrated into the curriculum.

I agree that it seems more likely than not that life exists outside planet Earth. In just the past three generations our species has learned that the size, age, and amount of matter in the universe is much greater than we ever could have imagined. Our grandparents might not know that there are multiple galaxies. In today's age we know that the universe is rife with galaxies. What looks like a blank patch of sky to our eyes is really a landscape of thousands, if not millions of galaxies. This video demonstrates.

There's even scientific articles emerging suggesting that our universe may be the interior of a black hole of another universe. This other universe may itself be the interior of a black hole inside yet another universe.

This was a pretty interesting flash applet tbh

Definitely a cool little find. Thanks for sharing!
