Cosmic Eye vs Powers of 10: Universe tour Usage & Stats

Cosmic Eye allows to user to zoom in and out of a preset image, by enormous zoom factors, reaching down the smallest known sub-atomic particles and up to the entire observable universe. Where possible, the app displays real photographs obtained with modern objectives, telescopes, and microscopes. Other views are phenomenal renderings of state-of-the-art computer models. This app draws inspiration from a progression of increasingly accurate graphical representations of the scales of our Universe, including the classical movie “Powers of Ten” (1977), directed by Charles and Ray Eames.

Powers of 10: Universe tour

The nature that we see is full of wonders and beauty. Not convinced? Look out of the window or in the mirror. But it doesn't stop there. The universe is packed with so many more things that we cannot see in our daily life - protons, atoms, cells, distant stars, galaxies and much more. But do you know how small an atom actually is, compared with us humans? Or how large the sun is, compared with the earth? And how many stars there are in the milky way? Powers of 10 will take you on a short journey through all the scales of our universe and will give you a hint of our universe's incommensurable size, beauty and complexity. From attometers to billions of lightyears – on every scale there is something to see.
