Thanks for sharing this. I love how it goes from something as small as (and even smaller than) an ant to the "Ant Nebula" and beyond. Wow.

It's awesome to be reminded how big the galaxy is and small we are. It puts our problems in perspective.

I'm sure this was in part inspired by the classic film by Charles and Ray Eames (http://www.powersof10.com/film).

Thanks!

Everything we know of, all of the nouns touch something else. The ocean to the shoreline, the land to the air, the air to the sky and sky to space. I don't know where it all ends and how it began, but I know everything we know touches something else.
