Scale of the Universe

This is just something kinda cool a friend showed me. It really gives you a sense how small we really are  :-\ (And how small a quark is...and how massive a quark is in comparison to the strings in string theory)

Yeah that thing is pretty interesting. We are so damn small, or big, depending of which way we look at...

I love these little things that put the universe into perspective. It kinda reminds me of that Powers of 10 video, but a lot more up-to-date and even more extreme in its scales.
