The Housemate recently pointed me to this awesome website where, using a simple sliding bar, you can explore the length scales of the universe. Zoom in to look at things too small to see...
* note the position of the sliding bar; viruses are far from the extreme small scales shown in the website
...and zoom out to look at things too large to fathom.
We live in a very, very big place made up of very, very small things. Prepare to have your mind blown...

That was awesome =D My favourite scale is seeing how tiny our Sun is compared to the bigger ones.
Yeah, and how puny our galaxy is compared to other galaxies :)
