I already knew it, but I forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me of it :):thumbsup:
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I have an .swf version of this demonstration (same audio and all!) dating back 2012. (My unreliable memory insists that there there were versions several years before that). One of the major reasons why I obtained a standalone .swf player when web browsers dropped support for flash formats was to play 'universe.swf' for friends.

That was very nice. Thank you kindly. I believe the inventors of the Eames Lounge Chair were also the originators of these sorts of films. Powers of Ten™ (1977) - YouTube[^]

You didn't zoom out far enough. :)
