I first watched this movie in 1980 when I was 8 years old and in 3rd grade, then several times in the school years that followed, then again today. I always looked forward to watching this film, and was excited when the teachers fired up the projector and announced that it would be shown. If I hadn't been shown this film, I likely would have chosen a different path for my life. Thank you to the producers of this film!

I thought on this video from my high school days in the '70s and mentioned it to my brother, who had not seen it. I didn't know the title, but did a keyword search using the words "man zoom out into space..." or something like that. I was elated to see it posted on YT! I would love to see this amazing video digitally re-edited in high-definition!

I saw this film at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, IL over 40 years ago. Given it was produced in 1977, and how much of its presentation still holds up as well is honest about the limits of its capacity to simulate reality, its a true masterpiece of educational media.

I feel absolutely mesmerized by seeing this. Considering how big our universe is, counting by powers of 10 really shows us the expansion of the universe and what it looks like and shows how tiny we and the solar system are if we keep counting up by powers of 10. Even technologies back then, when discussing the universe, show us how close or how far we are away from the Milky Way Galaxy and beyond.

41.864552, -87.613714 is the coordinate where they're took a picnic... For 38 years changing, then the garden is green and the left side of the park is straight, now not straight, and the step at the park not like on 1977... Near Dock C and D (between)... Or search at Google Maps, "Shedd Aquarium" and move it to the south

I've watched this and shown classrooms this for years and years. I think this video is one of the greatest achievements of the 1970's. It looks like it could have been made recently. There are some other videos that try to take on this topic and some websites, like star scale youtube video and Nikon has a cool universal scale app, but nothing is done as well as this. It truly takes on how big is big and how small is small!
