I just found this nifty free program called celestia. It's a space simulator. You can look at the planets and such. The fun thing though is you can zoom out. Zoom out on a universal scale. You are given just one glimpse of the entire unimaginable inifinity of creation. The only thing that was missing was a microscopic sign reading "You are here". Then again it might have annihilated my brain, but it would have been worth it.

Oh, did I mention its completely rendered in 3d. You actually need a pretty good video card to use it.

Do you have a mouse scrol wheel? If so use it. I'm not exactly sure how it works. I only got it 30 mins ago.

I'm trying to see if I can center the earth exactly on top of the sun, and try going a parsec away, and then zooming in really fast. Don't ask me why.
