the universe so very large and we are so very small and insignificant. I know that may sound nihilistic but the point I’m trying to make is that in our tiny short lives we should not complain about trivial matters but instead look at the more important problems.
oh shit?
God is amazing
Hey that is a really nice comparisson (and site). I think I jsut better go ahead and add you to my bookmarks. Hope you don’t mind if I borrow a picture and traceback to your post?
There is a link there to World Processor, a good historical representation of many things on earth, using different texture maps over the earth. For example, You can see the mountains of 3rd world debt, as well, 3d mountains rising above the geographical land mass.
Pluto is no longer in the solar system. Sad or enjoy? i do not know. well, at least we are sure that the Earth will still be in the solar system in the near future
Pluto is still in the solar system…just no longer considered a planet by the people who make up these sort of rules.
Man that is the coolest thing I’ve came across in a long while.
Antares is HOLY FRIGGIN CRAP HUGE!!! If the world were as big as Antares, I wonder how long it would take to circle it by plane. Probably years o_O
Woah! I am reminded of the scripture, “who am I that you are mindful of me?”
Does my Uranus look big in this?
what if a piece between serius and sun escapes towards us? i think i should stop programming and start living a proper life enjoying our small beautifull planet!
Fascinating pictures! I knew that the Sun was bigger than Earth but to compare them like that is amazing – it’s like comparing a pea (Earth) to a basketball (the Sun)!
Yeah, but I drive a big black SUV so……………..
Amazing pictures man!
Good Work!
Hiya, yes, I did post a link regarding to these amazing images – from the title of the post. Although I noticed it links to the home page here. But I’ll edit it to link to the exact page. Thanks for notify and thanks for those images. =P
awesome information… thanks for sharing.. very knowledge full
Wow! The earth is so small. It still amazes me that we, the people that inhabit this planet, still can’t see the real picture, a true perspective of our existence. Why can’t we all just… get along?
Thanx for the reality check.
Yeah I learned that a long time ago. It’s called “Our Universe” by National Geographic. Check it out. It was my favorite book, 17 years ago.
Wonder what would have happened to the real estate prices, if Earth was as big even Neptune or Uranus ?
Good lord. Antares is frighteningly large. So large that I cannot actually comprehend it.
I would love to see how the earth’s moon compares in this hierarchy.
Bob the moon would be around the same size as pluto.
Hi! I saw this comparision some time ago while researching material for my son´s first grade planets project. Still it staggers my imagination everytime I see it.
How big are the pieces of land that we are fighting for in so many parts of the world, again?
@ Bish
The pieces of land are pretty small in the grand scheme of things. But I would say they’re a mite more fertile and valuable to a human than a plot 1 million times the size on say antares, or even mars…
Wow, thank you!
It’s all about perspective. And to imagine God is bigger than all that. :) Sweet.
I have some requests:
1) Could you do them in 24-bit colour with nicer text labels
2) Render them at high resolution (3000 x 1600 or so)
3) Donate them to the Wikipedia project (or donate the original 3D model files)
oh my gah, is this why Leos are so obnoxious?
Long live Pluto!
this defintely gives one a better mental picture of our size in the scheme of things.
looks like some photosop work has been done on these – why what has been erased and why?

I cannot believe we are so small. Total reality check. Thanks!
wonderful! I knew that the earth is smaller than sun.but now i have come to know that sun is also very small when compared to many other stars.I realise that the size does not matter, it is the heart & purpose(usefulness) that matters! We too though small in size can have big HEARTS.
Hey! its the second time I m commenting
The big ball(sun)
The small ball (earth)
With other beautiful balls( other celestial bodies)
All were happy
The sun standing still
And others roamingaround it
Was seen in thesiet.
Those are beautiful colors,why isn’t our world so bright?
That’s really nifty.
Very cool! Thanks for putting things into perspective. Might be useful for my daughter, who thinks she’s the biggest thing in the universe. :)

wow god thanks for stopping by, but if you keep spamming this site, I will be forced to contact the good people at RIPE and let them know you are abusing their network connection. You might be god, but I have your IP address :)
ya rite but some times its not work yaar. Give me some more info
Hi,
I keep returning to this site just to view these objects but this is the first time I have been compelled to reply. Observing this information is dumbfounding, almost.
At this point in time science has deduced that the Universe they can imagine is all there is BUT one must consider that it is within something, Space, and no one knows how large Space is.
The Big Bang theory states that matter of some sort exploded and brought us to where we are today.
Has it ever occurred to anyone that two or more objects may have collided, and that collision brought about our Universe?
So science can’t see, or imagine, objects beyond their present scope, and therefore they don’t exist.
I contend that they do exist we are just not able to use our present technologies to see them.
If one is to imagine that objects so massive; say on the scale of our moon to Antares or lager objects,, colliding the output would be horrendous. That would create a Universe.
That’s my two cents.
cool
I spit in your presence, Naib. I like your Sietch.
nothing to add just awestruck
I’m feeling pretty tiny right about now…
Excellent pics a very good visual aid. It’s really hot in the Stumbleverse at the moment so I presume you’re getting stumbled on like crazy.
OMG!
kewl! great!
Thanks, in the effort to make it cooler now click on image for full view.
Nice dune reference Mornatur I am honored.
yes we are pretty small
DAMN URANUS IS HUGE.

Nice blog.
Please be careful with the “You are here” arrow. I hear tell that such relative comparisons can be used to drive one completely mad.
here’s a blog excerpt that I think fits well here:

Very Nice! Im going to share them with my class.
Hi.
Good design, who make it?
What can one say but…WOW
I’m sorry if this is off-topic, but I need some feedback. Do you think extended auto warranties a good deal?
Thanks in advance for your input.
Wow! Humbling…
and yet God knows the numbers of the hairs on my head!
I am so… NOTHING!
Very cool. There’s a video on YouTube that does a very good job of showing the scale of planets too:
