You were assigned a video to watch. In 2001 we had to watch a crazy-haired Mr. Bean lookalike wearing a sweater vest sucking on Altoids trying to hide the fact that he snuck outside to smoke on our lunch break get excited over this. What he was trying to say sunk in later and stuck. But THAT experience was a more powerful message than what the intended message was at the time and why it stuck. I’m willing to bet you won’t remember watching this video in 10 years.

im here because of my math teacher

This is what they mean when they say 'if it aint broke, don't fix it' I watched this video in middle school and high school when my teachers showed it to me Now I teach middle and high school and share it as much as I can with my students. :) one of the best videos on the internet of all time!

I had my first panic attack watching this video cause I felt like my mind expanded with the video and I could actually sense the scale of everything.. I've matured since then so it doesn't bother me anymore, in fact this video is amazing, but I pride this as the beginning of my spiritual awakening

That speed of light line (in 1 second) is so interesting. Kinda shows you how slow that is still compared to the size of the universe (or how big the universe is compared to it)

Censtudios- It also shows the box we are in unless we find a way around the "speed of light" speed limit. Most of the universe is way beyond our reach.

I first saw this as a film student in the early '90's. I've never seen space explained so logically or elegantly. A powerful film, a defining testament to the ties which bond us all.

Why are the old educational videos so much better than today's? When ever I need a refresher on something I look for the oldest possible video because they are always the best and most clearly expressed.

Wow. I remember seeing this over 40 years ago. It is still as mind blowing at age 54 as it was when I was 10. 😊👍

They showed us this video in college and it changed my life. Made in 1977!!

would love a remake of this video, with up to date discoveries/findings included in the dislodge or even in the animation.

There's already a remake for the zoom out, "Zooming out from earth (4K)", and for the zoom in, "Voyage into the world of atoms"

I saw this in High School, still gives me goosebumps today! I remember a large book of the movie, each page taking you further out and further in. It had such an impact on me, it blew my tiny brain!! So pleased to have found it again.

One of the best educational films ever made, and one of the best art films ever made. Just splendid.

A great book for anyone interested is "Sizing Up the Universe." And I used this film to show my grade 6 son why powers of 10 was important to understand. It was a "woah" moment.

This is one of my favorite videos of all time. I still vividly remember watching it in school as a child and how profoundly it affected my world view. Now I get to share it with my kids. Awesome!

I keep watching this every couple of years.....because it is absolutely, and simply, brilliant

The film 'A Matter of Life and Death' starring David Niven, made during the second world war, begins with the same words, then zooms in to Earth, down to a bomber aircraft on fire over the shore of Britain. Later there is a zoom out from a court of law, to the vast arena surrounding it, out into space, revealing the arena is a galaxy in the night sky. A film of H.G. Wells' story 'The Man Who Could Work Miracles' IIRC, also begins with those words.

The Eames' were such amazing people; a "married" couple, and Progressive innovators to boot! They each and together personified the definition of renaissance men/women! I'm afraid most people today -- tragically-- have no idea who they were, or, what they were so famously celebrated for?!

Thinking that my finger is only 10^20 metres away from touching the edge of the Milky Way makes me feel infinitely small and big at the same time...

Everything is energy. It‘s so fascinating. I can’t cope with the vastness that is out there. Wow.

It blew my mind. It gave me some perspective about what we are.

The way the outer body is, so is the inner body. A living MAN is an entire galaxy. Awesome knowledge.

Just found this gem via UC Berkeley. Will be using it with my high school physics students this fall.

Came to this video as a recommendation of a Natural Law teacher, I'm glad I watched it. Thank you

2020 the end

I want to inform people that even to this day(early 2022 roughly 45 years after its production) in my college Astronomy course, this film is still shown. I imagine and deeply hope that it will be shown forever.

I remember watching this in my childhood 7th grade science class. It's as fascinating now as it was then, 45 years ago. Even today with modern cinematic and computer animation, this still stands up to the test of time. The concept and thinking it inspires is timeless to be sure.

Size and distance are so well displayed on this film.It also makes individual human problems appear to be such a minor part of the whole.
