How big is it, really?

Size is the kind of number intuition handles worst. A figure for the Sun's volume or a country's area is correct and still means nothing until it is set against something familiar.

These clips do that setting: how many of one thing fit inside another, how long light takes to cross the gap, how the tallest buildings stack up against the oldest.

New episodes show up in Your Library.
