Check this site out…it’s pretty amazing. It’s a series of images, beginning with a view of the Milky Way galaxy at a distance of 10 million light years from the Earth (10^ 23 meters away). The images zoom into the Earth in successive orders of magnitude until you reach a tall oak tree just outside the buildings of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee at Florida State University. After that, it takes you from the actual size of a leaf into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell walls, the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and finally the subatomic universe of electrons and protons (10^ -16 meters). Cool stuff!
Thanks to local artist Ansley Black for the heads up.
