This is a visualization created by Red Side comparing the speed of the fastest manmade vehicles and other objects in different categories (e.g. fastest motorcycle, fastest jet aircraft, fastest space probe). It provides both 1st and 3rd person views, and begins with the fastest vehicles ever driven on Mars, the

This is an informative video from Peter Schmiedchen of What If? detailing how many Earths could fit inside the planets in our solar system that are larger than Earth, and how many of Earth’s moons could fit inside the planets that are smaller than Earth. I learned a lot by
