Once in a while I find a website that offers illustrations to help us appreciate the relative sizes of the Earth, solar system, Milky Way Galaxy and beyond. This one at Buzzfeed humbled me.

OMG…THAT was AWEsome! Thanks for sharing that link. I don’t mean to quibble but I think measuring a black hole’s diameter as ” 4 light days” is…well… an oxymoron. ;-D
Good catch on the black hole. Maybe 4 light-days for the squished astronaut who is trying to fly through it in a magical spaceship???
