Because the typical American diet sure ain’t what it used to be, this is an animated bar chart detailing the nation’s shifting food consumption over the last century. Each bar represents the average daily caloric intake of a particular food group or type of food. Fast food and junk snacks

Originally made in 2018 but updated with sick 4K graphics and narration by EpicSpaceMan (aka Toby Lockerbie), this is Melodysheep’s ‘Entire History Of The Universe’.

It begins with the tiny soot sprites from Hayao Miyazaki movies, and ends with the 10.45-trillion light year wide Super Tengen Toppa

Because the oceans are probably the best thing that ever happened to earth (humanity ranks dead last), this is a beautiful visualization of the earth’s ocean currents according to NASA’s ECCO (Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean) model, developed using data from spacecraft, buoys, and other measurements.
