1、. ZOOMPOWER OF 10FROM MICRO TO MACROCOSMOSThis 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,
2、 until the limit of our inmagination in direction to the macrocosmos.Later lets return, a little faster, up to the point where we started and continue our trip in the opposite direction reducing distances of travel by factors of 10 into the microcosmos.Observe the constancy of the laws of the univer
3、se and think about how much the human race still needs to learn.BON VOYAGE!Distance to a bunch of leaves, in the garden1001 meterStart our trip upwards . We could see the foliage.101 10 metersAt this distance we can see the limits of the forest and the edifications102100 meters We will pass from met
4、ers to kilometers.Now it is possible to jump with a parachute .1031 kmThe city could be observed but we really can not see the houses10410 kmAt this height, the state of Flrida - USA, can be seen.105100 kmTypical sight from a satellite1061.000 km The north hemisphere of Earth, and part of South Amer

6、our trip, we could observe the Solar System and the orbits of the planets101310 billons de km1014 100 Billons de kmThe Solar System starts looking small.The Sun now is a small star in the middle of thousands of stars.10151 trilln de kmAt one light-year the little Sun star is very small10161 light-ye
7、arHere we will see nothing in the infinity.101710 light-year“Nothing” Only stars and Nebulae.1018100 light-years10191,000 light-yearsAt this distance we started travelling the Via-Lctea (Milky Way), our galaxy.We continued our travel inside the Via-Lctea.102010,000 light-yearsWe started reaching the
8、 periphery of the Via-Lctea1021100,000 light-yearsAt this tremendous distance we could see all the Via-Lctea & other galxies too.10221 millin light-yearsFrom this distance, all the galaxies look small with inmense empty spaces in between.The same laws are ruling in all bodies of the Universe. We cou
9、ld continue traveling upwards with our imagination, but now we will return home quickly1023 - 10 million light-years1022102110201019101810171016101510141013101210111010109108107106105104Questions that come to our minds .Who are we? Where are we going? From where did we come from?103Or. What do we re
10、present in the Universe?102In this trip “upwards” we went to the power of 23 of 10101Now we are going to dig inside of the matter in an inverse trip. We arrived at our starting point. We could reach it with our arms.100Getting closer at 10 cm .We can delineate the leaves.10-110 CentmetersAt this dis
11、tance it is possible to observe the structure of the leaf.10-21 CentmeterThe cellular structures start showing.10-31 MillmeterThe cells can be defined. You could see the union between them.10-4100 micronsStart our trip inside the cell.10-510 micronsThe nucleus of the cell is visible.10-61 micrnAgain
12、 we changed the messuring unit to adapt to the minscule size. You could see the chromosomes.10-71.000 AngstromsIn this micro universe the DNA chain is visible. 10-8100 Angstroms.the chromosmes blocks can be studied.10-910 AngstromsIt appears like clouds of electrons. These are carbon toms that forme
13、d our world. You could notice the resemblance of the microcosmos with the macrocosmos.10-101 AngstromIn this miniature world we could observe the electrons orbiting the atoms.10-1110 picmetersAn inmense empty space between the nucleous and the electron orbits.10-121 PicmeterAt this incredible and mi
14、nuscule size we could observe the nuceous of the atom.10-13100 FentmetersNow we could observe the nucleous of the carbon atom10-1410 FentmetersHere we are in the field of the scientific imagination, face to face with a proton.10-151 FentmeterExamine the quark partculesThere is nowhere more to go.At
15、the limits of current scientific knowledge . This is the limit of matter. 10-16100 AtmetersAnd now .Are you the center of the universe?Are you the special creature of the Creatin?What is behind those limits? Are there any limits?Note that going “downwards” we could only go to the power of minus 16of 10 and reached the (known?) limits of matter. But upwards we went to the power of 23 of 10 and stopped. But really we could have continued our trip with out limits to our imagination!. then? .who says that we are alone in the universe?END !
