Description

The range of size in the universe, from the tiniest particles to the epic galaxies—we take you on a journey of size that lets you explore it all with a single swipe. How big is a planet, compared to a human? And how small is an atom really? You can’t fully wrap your head around the scope of things by just reading about them – so this app lets you experience them in comparison to get a feeling for their true scale. By simply swiping you can zoom in and out all the way from the world of fundamental particles up to the largest galaxies at the edge of the observable universe.

Seamless zooming between the scales of 10^-35 meters to 10^26 meters (no math required)

Amazing fun facts for various scale levels, like the smallest bacterium and the largest black hole

Tap any object for an explanation of what it is, how it works, and our favorite mind-blowing facts

Beautifully animated illustrations of more than 250 objects

Original Kurzgesagt music to complement your experience

v1.5.1

Ci sono degli errori di posizionamento, sembra che gli USA siano grandi quanto la luna perchè sono messi sullo stesso piano e paragonati con due grandezze opposte, la luna con il suo diametro in km e gli USA con la superficie in km². Ma il nostro satellite è indubbiamente più grande anche in termini di superficie di qualsiasi stato terrestre, (37 milioni di km² contro gli 8 mln km² statunitensi). Vi invito a correggere!

L'applicazione è fantastica, ho voluto acquistarla principalmente per supportare le menti dietro ad ogni contenuto di Kurzgesagt, tuttavia non mi si apre più da circa un mese, ho fatto in tempo ad utilizzarla giusto 2 volte, spero in una risoluzione definitiva

Simply Amazing, One of the best app i've ever seen about universe. But i've noticed a mistake in Sirius size, since its absolutely bigger than the sun (his radius is 2 times the solar one), but here Sirius seems to be smaller than the sun
