Fantastic video. On a similar line, in 1977 Charles and Ray Eames made an amazing film called "Powers of Ten", it also deals with the very small and the very large:

That was  fascinating and enjoyable viewing .  :)

On the illustrated journey back toward planet Earth ;  I was surprised the focus was not shown as the centre of intelligent life on Earth - that being the B.K.P. file server.  :mrgreen:

Very good indeed. We are indeed very small. Watching this makes me think that there must be other planets that have intelligent life (or just life) on them.
