http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/primer/java/scienceopticsu/powersof10/
View the Milky Way at 10 million light years
from the Earth. Then move through space towards
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, Florida. After that,
begin to move from the actual size of a leaf
into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell
walls, the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and
finally, into the subatomic universe of
electrons and protons.
