This is a great site for showing the scale of the universe. Try not to feel to insignificant look at it... or the next time you look at the night sky.

How do you scale something to infinite?

That\'s like making a ratio relative to infinite, which therefore makes it \'infinite:infinite\'

It\'s hypothetical, Ydoow. Infinite is a word for 'as big as you can possibly imagine, then bigger again'.

I\'ve seen this site before, and I always liked it. It\'s a good one.

The observable universe is a finite space thanks to the speed of light. Who knows what\'s beyond what we can see...

What the site is, is everything to scale to the KNOWN universe (everything we can \'see\')...

Thats pretty interesting to look at

It does make me realise just how vast space is..

If you could see the entirety of creation you would be unable to comprehend it and die.

E.g. Total Perspective Vortex
