When I click the link it just goes strait to 4chan.org. Something break or maybe I'm missing something?
Re: The universe and you
It's Flash, so if you're on an iPad or something that doesn't support Flash, that might do it.

Re: The universe and you
I remember using the original version of this thing for an astronomy lecture about a year ago. The large objects start making little sense as they are unfathomably large. I really enjoy the small objects because it gives us perspective on how small we really are as beings in this nearly incomprehensible universe.
