Sternengruss is not my last name, it means greetings from the stars. :-) Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida has put up a very interesting page on its site. It begins as a view of the Milky Way Galaxy viewed from a distance of 10 million light years and then Zooms in towards Earth in powers of ten. 10 million, to one million, to 100,000 light years and then it finally reaches a large Oak tree. Once you click on the site, the software does all the work. Sit back and imagine how complex our universe is! You can play it forward and backward to be amazed over and over. At the end it says AUTO....click on that and review the process in reverse! http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/primer/java/scienceopticsu/powersof10/index. Received on Tue 12 Jul 2005 04:11:51 PM PDT |
