Here's a site that is elevating web art to new heights. Or, I guess, "lengths" is a more appropriate term.
The folks at Phrenopolis.com (who offer "Good things for your head") have posted a web page that represents a scale model of a hydrogen atom. The scale model works out to a massive fifty million pixels wide. If your screen resolution is set at 72dpi, that's around 11 miles of pixels between the proton and the electron. The first thing I did after saying "hmm" was view the page source, at which point I said "Hmm!"
The page illustrates exactly how much "nothingness" is inside the basic building block of all matter in the universe. The team has several other science projects illustrating perspective here. Clever stuff.
