POWER OF 10

FROM MICRO TO MACROCOSMOS

.

This is a trip at high speed, jumping distances by factor of 10. Start with 100 equivalent to 1 meter, and increasing sizes by factor of 10s ,or 101 (10 meters), 102 (10x10 = 100 meters, 103 (10x10x10 = 1.000 meters), 104 (10x10x10x10 = 10.000 meters), so on, until the limit of our inmagination in direction to the macrocosmos.

Later lets return, a little faster, until the point where we started and continue our trip in oposite direction reducing distances to travel by factor of 10 into the microcosmos.

Observe the constancy of the laws of the universe and think about how much the human race still need to learm...

BON VOYAGE!

0 10
1 meter
Distance to a bunch of leaves, in the garden

1 10
Start our trip upwards .... We could see the foliage.

10 meters

2 10
100 meters
At this distance we can see the limits of the forest and the edifications

3 10
1 km
We will pass from meters to kilometers.. Now it is possible to jump with a parachute ...

4 10
10 km
The city could be observed but we really can not see the houses

5 10
100 km
At this height, the state of Flrida - USA, can be seen..

6 10
1.000 km
Typical sight from a satellite

7 10
10.000 km
The Nor hemisphere of Earth, and part of Sud-America

8 10
100.000 km
The Earth start looking small...

9 10
1 milln de km
The Earth and the Moons rbit in white....

10 10
10 Millons de km
Part of the Earths Orbit in blue

11 10
100 millons de km
rbits of: Venus and Earth...

12 10
1 billn de km
rbits of: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars and Jpiter.

13 10
10 billons de km
At this height of our trip, we could observe the Solar System and the orbits of the planets

14 10
100 Billons de km
The Solar System start looking small...

15 10
1 trilln de km
The Sun now is a small Star in the middle of thousands stars...

16 10
1 light-year
At one light-year the little Sun star is very small

17 10
Here we will see nothing in the infinity....

10 light-year

18 10
Nothing Only stars and Nebulouses

100 light-years

19 10
At this distance we started travelling the Via-Lctea, our galaxy.

1.000 light-years

20 10
10.000 light-year
We continued our travel inside the Via-Lctea.

21 10
We started reaching the peripheric of the Via-Lctea

100.000 light-years

22 10
1 milln light-years
At this tremendous distance we could see all the Via-Lctea other galxies too...

23 10

- 10 millons light-years

From this distance, all the galaxies looks small with inmense empty spaces in between. The same laws are ruling in all bodies of the Universe. We could continue traveling upwards with our imagination, but now we will return home quickly

Ahora vamos a disminuir la velocidad nuevamente. Podemos ver otra vez a nuestra querida Tierra.

7 10
Toda la epopeya de la raza humana fue vivida en este planeta azul...

6 10

Por ms que viajemos hacia arriba, todo estaba ya regulado por leyes idnticas

5 10

El planeta Tierra slo es una insignificancia en la inmensidad espacial...

4 10
Questions that came to our minds ...

Who are we? Where are we going? From where we came?

3 10
Or... What we represent for the Universe?

2 10
In this trip upwards We went to the power of 23 of 10

1 10
Now we are going to dig inside of the matter in an inverse trip...

0 10
We arrived to our starting point. We could reach it with our arm length...

-1 10
Getting closer at 10 cm We can delineate the leave.

10 Centmeters

-2 10
1 Centmeter
At this distance it is possible observe the estructures of the leave.

-3 10
1 Milmeter

The cellular estructures started showing...

-4 10
100 microns
The cells can be defined. You could see the union between them.

-5 10
10 microns
Start our trip inside the cell...

-6 10
1 micrn

The nucleous of the cell is visible.

-7 10
1.000 Amgstrons
Again we changed the the messuring unit to adapt to the minscule size. You could see the cromosomas.

-8 10
100 Amgstrons
In this micro universe the ADN chain is seen.

-9 10
10 Amgstrons
the cromosmatics blocks can be studied.

-10 10
1 Amgstron
It appears like clouds of electrons of carbon toms that formed our world.

You could notice the resemblace of the micro with the macrocosmos...

-11 10
10 picmeters
In this miniature world we could observe the electons orbiting the atoms.

-12 10
1 Picmetro

An inmense empty space between the nucleous and the electron orbits...

-13 10
100 Fentmeters
At this incredible and minuscule size we could observe the nuceous of the atom.

-14 10
10 Fentmeters
Now we could observe the nucleous of the Carbon atom

-15 10
1 Fentmeter
Here we are in the field of the scientific imagination face to face with a Proton.

-16 10
100 Atmeters
Examinating the quark partcules
There is no more where to go... At the current scientific knowledge . This is the limits of the matter...

And now Are you the center of the universe?

Are you the especial creature of the Creatin?

What is behind those limits? Are there any limits? Note that downwards only we could go to the power of minus 16of 10 and reached the limits of the (know?) matter... But upwards we went to the power of 23 of 10 and stopped... But really we could have continue our trip with out limits of our imagination!!!! ... then? ...who say that we are alone in the universe?

END !
