Powers of One
June 21, 2007 at 10:41 am | ilya | cartoons, science and the publicHey folks, Sam dug up this awesome cartoon, entitled Powers of One, from the xkcd.com site:

Powers of Ten is a 1977 short documentary film written and directed by Charles Eames and his wife, Ray. The film depicts the relative scale of the Universe in factors of ten (see also logarithmic scale and order of magnitude). The idea for the film appears to have come from the 1957 book Cosmic View by Kees Boeke.

I saw that video not long ago, and I’m pretty sure I first saw it when I was a child. Very, very cool, thanks for putting it out there again. Also, XKCD is good.
I’ve tagged you with an annoying blog meme, and one of the rules is I have to tell you about it via comment. Feel free to ignore this tag.
