How Does Brian Cox: The incomprehensible scales that rule the Universe Work?

Brian Cox’s show shows us how tiny and huge things are in the Universe, it's like looking at a grain of sand and a mountain all at once!

Imagine you have a toy car that can zoom around your bedroom. That’s about how big an atom is, super tiny! But if you take that same toy car and make it as big as a skyscraper, that’s about how big a planet is. Now imagine doing that again, making the skyscraper into something as big as the whole Earth. That's how big a star can be!

Atoms are like the building blocks of everything we see. They’re so small that if you could shrink down to their size, your bedroom would feel like a huge city.

Stars and galaxies are like giant cities in space, they're made up of billions of atoms, all working together to make something massive and bright.

It's like comparing a pencil eraser to the Earth, one is small enough to hold in your hand, and the other is so big it could fit millions of pencils inside!
