The Scale of the Universe 2
– “What does the universe look like on small scales? On large
scales? Humanity is discovering that the universe is a very different place on
every proportion that has been explored. For example, so far as we know, every
tiny proton is exactly the same, but every huge galaxy is different. On more familiar scales, a small glass table top
to a human is a vast plane of strange smoothness to a dust mite -- possibly speckled with cell boulders. Not all scale
lengths are well explored -- what happens to the smallest
mist droplets you sneeze, for example, is a topic of active research -- and
possibly useful to know to help stop the spread of disease. The above
interactive flash animation,
a modern version of the classic video Powers of Ten, is a new window to many of the known scales of our universe. By moving the scroll bar across the bottom, you
can explore a diversity of sizes, while clicking on different items will
bring up descriptive information.” (L:M,H; SA:S)
