      I already knew it, but I forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me of it :):thumbsup:

          Reminds of the [A Pale Blue Dot | The Planetary Society](https://www.planetary.org/worlds/pale-blue-dot) by Carl Sagan, circa 1990.

            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.

                From the same author... interesting simulation: Three-Body Problem: A Precise Simulation - YouTube[^] And unexpected end (for me at least)

                  I am obviously very childish. On zooming right out I was expecting the largest object to be 'your mum'.

                    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. :)
