The Universe from Macro to Micro!

Did you ever wonder just how big the universe was compared to everything else in it? Now you can in this educational game, The Universe!

Find out how small we really are! The Universe is a fascinating look at just how huge the universe really is! Start by looking at Earths largest creatures to our biggest monuments then scale out to planets. It gets crazier from there. Have fun exploring and learning interesting facts!

What does the universe look like on small scales? On large scales? Humanity is discovering that the universe is a very different place on every proportion that has been explored. For example, so far as we know, every tiny proton is exactly the same, but every huge galaxy is different. On more familiar scales, a small glass table top to a human is a vast plane of strange smoothness to a dust mite -- possibly speckled with cell boulders. Not all scale lengths are well explored, what happens to the smallest mist droplets you sneeze, for example, is a topic of active research and possibly useful to know to help stop the spread of disease.By moving the scroll bar across the bottom, you can explore a diversity of sizes, while clicking on different items will bring up descriptive information.
