This definitely should be a permanent science-art exhibition, with a higher permanent observation point where you can see the lights in real time. I'm totally sure that this project can drag the best people to even install some of the moons and do it. Damn, I got so excited that I will make my own scale planetary system with blackjack and alcohol,
+bogie2680 Ignore iCollectDeadBirds, I'm extremely glad to hear that you'll be showing this in class! I feel like this could truly help show a point in a fun way =)
It's the fifth or the sixth time I'm looking at it after some months. You're great, guys. I just need to remind myself where we are on such a tiny scale in the universe. It's mind blowing
This video was also excellent. I understand the informality of it, but it answers a lot of questions that I guess are only significant to geeks that do this kind of stuff.... like me... Thanks again for your sharing your dream.
You guys are amazing! It's so important to understand that the earth and really the solar system are so small compared to everything in the universe. It's humbling and amazing to think of the earth as a marble, and I believe you folks are going a great thing by showing people this perspective. Once you come to terms with the size of everything, the world becomes a simple place where we exist and that's it!
How nice. Well, it will never be possible to put them all inside a page of a book in any scale. You guys just made this even clearer. Well done Congratulations.
Fantastic and fun project! It's certainly never been done before, quite like that, as far as I know. In no way do I want to diminish this marvelous project but I would add that "to scale" models of the solar system have been done before.
What a wonderful work. It's also interesting when one reckons: in that a dozen kilometer scale miniature world, his gentle walking would be faster than speed of light; and in that time lapse, the Neptune is running 5 billion times faster than it should be, for a round of Neptune would nearly cost two men's lifetimes.
