⭐️ The UNIVERSE on a HUMAN SCALE 🪐

What would the universe be like if the Earth was just 1 cm long?
In this video we show you the relative sizes of stars, nebulae and galaxies on a more human scale ... although, even so, it is beyond our comprehension.

It's difficult to understand the size of the universe, even shrinking the Earth to 1 cm is still difficult.

Es difícil comprender el tamaño del universo, incluso encogiendo la Tierra a 1 cm sigue siendo difícil.

Make the Earth super tiny and we STILL go galactic.

That's our universe, folks.

*Even in small scale, the universe is truly astronomical.*


Another terrifyingly existential journey with MBS!

The music for these videos is almost as entirely astounding as the incredible video portions. They complement and certainly need each other, and viewers like me are super impressed and enjoy passing along URLs for these journeys to others.

When reality is so vast, analogies cease to compute in a human brain.

[Lito]

It gets to a point where as much as I understand the numbers at the same time they're kind of meaningless due to the massive scale it's so impressive

0:12 - Awww, cuuute.
1:00 - Okay, still understood.
1:27 - Okay, still understood.
1:58 - Uh, it's getting a bit big.
2:32 - My brain still tries to understand it.
2:46 - I give up.
3:22 - How big can it get?
3:36 - Uh, where's Earth?
3:50 - I think, it might be enough.
4:14 - Okay, okay, I got the message, our universe is biiiggg!
4:40 - Pliz stahp!!
5:00 - Wow, holy crap value 1000.

This was a great video, I love such comparisons.

Even when we see it with our own eyes, we can never truly understand how enormous the universe is.

[amritprajapati]

Remember, that last one is just the "observable" universe. Imagine what the "unobservable" looks like.

I like watching these videos when I start to feel important.

[faithfulfilo]

Seeing these scales of the universe gives me a sort of solace, melancholy, but also clarity that there just is other beings out there.

We may never be able to communicate to them, let alone reach them... but they're out there.

Imagine waking up in the morning, going outside the house to find the moon, the sun and a 2 meter size black hole.

I’m not gonna lie, this with the music just makes me cry. The fact that we’re here right now, a pale blue “marble” in the universe and all of this exists makes me forever grateful.

[romanticdonkey]

A cool quote that I once heard. “There are more stars in the observable universe than there are grains of sand on earth, but there are more atoms in one grain of sand than there are stars in the observable universe”. Not sure if I got the quote correct, but it’s it’s mind blowing to think that as far as this video zoomed out, it may be possible to zoom in just as much, or more.

[jackbrigoli]

When you see things like this, it's hard to believe that we once believed we were the centre of the universe. We're less than microscopic bacteria living on a miniscule grain of sand in an ocean vastly bigger than we can imagine. Even when earth is the size of a marble, the rest of the observable universe stretches far beyond the boundaries of our solar system. We are truly insignificant.

[leaphymoon]

My heart was thudding the further out you went. This is a testament of just how mind bogglingly massive the universe is. The sol system, a distance no man has even traveled to Mars, is smaller than an atom in comparison to observable universe. . .

[wezdebono]

You could scale the Earth down to the size of a cell and the Universe would STILL be much larger than our solar system... This is truly mindblowing!

[leokimvideo]

Carl Sagan would be impressed, it's all star stuff

It’s always entertaining and educational to simulate with everyday objects to get a perspective. Keep up the great work.
