As I am halfway around the world right now, using the magic of the internet and Science 2.0's 'scheduling' function, here is a fun little graphic of 'the universe'. It shows various sizes of things in the universe, particularly how our planets measure against the Sun (hint: we're tiny) and how our Sun measures against other stars (hint again: we're tiny).
Now, my main question is, anyone know the original creator of this work?
