I’ve seen similar websites allowing you to compare tiny and large things of the world, but this is a new one called “The Scale of the Universe.” I spent ten minutes enjoying the comparison, then decided to share the link to the site.
Here’s one thing that I noticed for the first time: The distance from the Earth to the Moon is 250,000 miles. If you traveled that long distance, starting from the surface of the sun, traveling toward the center of the sun, you’d be only 1/3 of the way through the sun.
Tonight I found out that the two co-creators of this wonderful website are high school students. http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/page/scale-universe-cary-michael-huang-california-high-school-15573968
