There are some great visualizations of the scale of the universe. I’ve posted about this in the past:
- The Scale of Atoms, Cells and Our Solar System
- Really Really Big Numbers
- 5000 Megapixel Image of The Milky Way Galaxy
- The Earth and Moon from 6,000,000 away
Click the image above, scroll from Earth Orbit, past the moon and all the planets and out into the Universe. Be sure to notice how the scale changes as you scroll down. The oscillating wave is a great way to illustrate the changing scale. This is a great graphic!
