The video starts looking at Pluto’s moon, Charon, and it visits all the planets of our solar system, including Earth. Then we move 100 light years away to circle the Sun, away again to 15.000 light years, travelling outside the galaxy, to finally travel 500.000 light years away from it.

Finished animation for a school project. The Solar System.
Note: Celestial bodies’ sizes, distances and speeds are not realistic.
There are stars in the background but the compression erased them so they are not really visible.

Second in the series with an inderterminate number of parts.
Carl Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot tells us a lot more about our place in the Cosmos than any creation myth cooked up by men. The reality of how stars and worlds are born makes the primitive explanations of our ancestors pale in comparison. The fact that no scripture holds a description of the creation of the Earth that comes even vaguely close to the reality we have discovered speaks volumes as the origins of these texts. They do not contain the facts because the facts are beyond the comprehension and imagination of the human brain.

Hubblecast 22: Hubble Space Telescope Directly Observes Exoplanet Orbiting Fomalhaut.
The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has discovered an extrasolar planet, for the first time using direct visible-light imaging. The strange world is far-flung from its parent star, is surrounded by a colossal belt of gas and dust, and may even have rings more impressive than Saturn’s.
