Just in case you were ever wondering how insignificant you (and the entire planet earth) really are, this mind boggling digital recreation of the ‘The Known Universe’ will take you from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and into the inky black of space, all the way to the afterglow of the Big Bang.

This remarkable recreation, including every star, planet and quasar, is made possible because of the world’s most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History ^[1].
