There are several graphics which try to apply a scale to the very big and very small. This one is the bestI've seen.

This would be really cool as a wall sized mural too.

Big universe is big!

Thanks for reminding me!

Actually, the Universe is like the TARDIS only more so.  
It's really huge on the inside and then some, but from outside, it's nothing at all, de nada, zilch.
The trick is that it contains all of everything, even its own outside.

Thanks very much - uber kool!

Reminded me of the Eames film "Powers of Ten" (also uber kool...)

That is awsome! I'll need to show this to my friends. :D

The thing that disturbs me is that vast empty range of scale between the planck length and the neutrino. You could practically fit a whole other universe in there.

We never get the answer of this question and if we get the answer we can not say that this is right answer.The Universe is so Big that we can't imagine.Our Galaxy is just a small little point in trillions of galaxy.After that our solar planet is also one trillions of solar system in only our one galaxy.This is very big topic to discuss.Thanks
