Powers of ten.

When I was a wee lad, back in the mid '80s, my parents took me to an industrial fair in Hannover, Germany.
Among the many things that blew my mind were big robots, sphere's floating
freely in the air with magnets, 3D cinema, and much more I don't recall.

This particular little short film became engraved in my young and curious mind forever, I was
deeply impressed. I suppose some of the non-teenage members have already
seen this at some point in their lives, but then again, many may have not.

Enjoy.

Wow.... thanks for sharing this, I had not seen it before & it has peaked my interest on many levels. I feel tiny like a microbe, although it only takes me ~30 mins to leave chicago depending on traffic and the time of day hehehe :beer:

PS - I've picnic'd right there before, I swear

Come on people, it's 9 minutes of your life very well invested...
Really puts things into perspective and gives you a nice grasp on the "scale of things".

That was pretty interesting. I feel so small... and big.

You'd feel a lot bigger if you removed Zeros instead of adding them...
