In Bill Bryson's book 'A Short History of Nearly Everything' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Short_History_of_Nearly_Everything he took me on a journey that is similar. Start from our scale and go out then in. Great writing!

Feb 10, 2012 #6 RopeShield Carpal tunnel level member Location Ontario, Canada Walked my boys thru it. Funny reactions. Mostly goofy. Where is Super Mario Galaxy and they especially like traveling fast from beginning to end and back and forth screaming in high voices. Other interesting note is Sime my middle child curled up into a ball as we went back to the smallest knowns! So very cool, thanks for sharing, I love the Buzz.
