Scale of The Universe

T4C Fantasy · Jun 18, 2012

I found this rather intriguing site that shows everything to scale all the way down to a quantum foam and string!

Song To Listen Too While Viewing:
The xx - Intro [10 Hours] - YouTube

Scale of the Universe v1:
http://htwins.net/scale/

Scale of the Universe v2:
http://htwins.net/scale2/?bordercolor=white

Scale of the Universe v3:
http://scaleofuniverse.com/

I was more interested in the smaller things since... before this scale, I did not know what was smaller than a nanometer, and needed a visual template to comprehend it, I didnt know that an atom is pretty friggen enourmous compared to molecules, electrons neutrons, protons and nucleus, quite frankly... this is physics 101 in a nutshell

Edit: also the "lengths before this point are not confirmed" made me laugh

Edit 2:

and i would also like to point out that i had no idea that scientists already had a theory on how big the universe actually is, i always thought that we didn't because we've always had the term "observable universe", turns out there's much more we dont know but is hidden in plain sight. ^.^

Edit 3: the creator needs to update the list a bit though, transistor gates are down to 22nm now ^^ look how close it is to the size of DNA!

That's cool. Thanks for posting, T4C :toast:

The creator (Cary Huang) is on the right. I'm trying to find a place to thank him cause I think that is an amazing tool.

T4C Fantasy, that is a sweet post.
Really puts you in your place in the scheme of things.

What's the deal with the size of Minecraft? It's that big?

EDIT: Never mind, I didn't realize that each picture was annotated, if you click it gives an example. Really is a neat site.

yes thats exactly what i thought, however i was more interested in the smaller things since... before this scale, i didnt know what was smaller than a nanometer, and needed a visual template to comprehend it, i didnt know that an atom is pretty friggen enourmous compared to molecules, electrons neutrons, protons and nucleus, quite frankly... this is physics 101 in a nutshell

That's pretty cool.
Although some things are not exactly to scale.
