Someone recently pointed out that Google Maps has made this kind of perspective far more commonplace... and, of course, Wil Wright has just turned this movie into a game.

But this is still one awesome piece of science education.

GREAT video! Reminds me of zooming out in google maps on the satellite view, really makes the world feel smaller.

> Wanna feel insignificant in the world, watch this.

Size != significance

Awesome video. A classic.

Anyone know where I can find the Simpson's parody? It's been removed from YouTube and everywhere else I looked :(

Why did IBM want to make this video?

This is awesome, but without the lame narration it would be ten times better.
