Get Small; Get Large

As a physicist, I have developed a sense of scale.  It's takes practice to develop it, but after all, physicists think every day about about the very small (like a atom's nucleus) to the very large (like galactic clusters).

Even then, when I see a clear visual demonstration of the scale of the universe, I am never anything less but awed.
