But this is another in MetaBallStudio’s unending series of size comparison videos (previously), this time visualizing the size of various microorganisms using humans, increasingly larger manmade objects, and eventually
This is another visual comparison video created by MetaBallStudio (previously), this time comparing the average distance traveled in one minute by various objects in the universe, including animals, machines, planets, etc. I learned a lot by watching it.

Created by visual comparer of things MetaBallStudio (previously), this is a video animation comparing the size of various dragons, starting with the diminutive ~60cm Azymondias and Mushu from The Dragon Prince and Mulan, and ending with the larger-than-galaxies Super Shenron from Dragon Ball Super.

This is a visualization created by climate data scientist Neil Kaye using a world map to detail what percentage of the world’s population is asleep or awake at any given hour (assuming nightly 8 hour sleep periods). I learned a lot by looking at it. Mostly, that when the US
