. ZOOM ZOOM POWER OF 10 Wonders of Micro to Macrocosm

Holy Quran Surah 41: Ayah53 We will show them Our Signs in the Universe and in their own souls, until it will become clear to them that it is the Truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that He is a witness over all things? سَنُرِيهِمْ آيَاتِنَا فِي الْآفَاقِ وَفِي أَنفُسِهِمْ حَتَّى يَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ أَوَلَمْ يَكْفِ بِرَبِّكَ أَنَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ

This is a trip at high speed, jumping distances by factor of 10. Start with 10 0 equivalent to 1 meter, and increasing sizes by factor of 10s,or 10 1 (10 meters), 10 2 (10x10 = 100 meters, 10 3 (10x10x10 = meters), 10 4 (10x10x10x10 = meters), so on, until the limit of our inmagination in direction to the macrocosmos. Later let’s return, a little faster, up to the point where we started and continue our trip in the opposite direction reducing distances of travel by factors of 10 into the microcosmos. Observe the constancy of the laws of the universe and think about how much the human race still needs to learn...

BON VOYAGE!

Distance to a bunch of leaves, in the garden meter

Start our trip upwards.... We could see the foliage meters

At this distance we can see the limits of the forest and the buildings meters

We will pass from meters to kilometers.. Now it is possible to jump with a parachute km

The city can be seen but we cannot see the houses km

At this height, part of the state of Florida can be seen km

Typical sight from a satellite km

The northern hemisphere of the Earth, and part of South America km

The Earth looks small km

The Earth and the Moon’s orbit in white million Km

Part of the Earth’s Orbit in blue Million Km

million Km Orbits of Venus and Earth...

Orbits of Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars and Jupiter billion Km

At this height we can observe the Solar System and the orbits of the planets billion Km

Billion Km The Solar System looks small...

The Sun now is a small star in the middle of thousands of stars trillion Km

At one light-year the little Sun star is very small light-year

Here we see nothing in the infinity light-year

Nothing is seen but only stars and Nebulae light-years

,000 light-years At this distance we start traveling the Via-Lactea (Milky Way), our galaxy.

We continue our travel inside the Milky Way ,000 light-years

We start reaching the periphery of the Via-Lactea (the Milky Way) ,000 light-years

At this tremendous distance we can see all the Milky Way & other galaxies million light-years

From this distance, all galaxies look small with inmense empty spaces in between. The same laws rule in all bodies of the Universe. We can continue traveling upwards with our imagination, but now we will return home quickly million light-years

10 4 Questions that come to mind: Who are we? Where are we going? Where did we come from?

10 3 Or... What do we represent in the Universe?

10 2 In this trip “upwards” we went to the power of 23 of 10

10 1 Now we will dig inside the matter in an inverse trip...

We arrive at our starting point. We can reach it with our arms

Holy Quran Surah 13:Ayah 2  Allah is He Who raised the heavens without any pillars that you see, and He is firm in power  and He made the sun and the moon subservient to you; each one pursues its course to an appointed time;  He regulates the affair, making clear the signs that you may be certain of meeting your Lord.  اللّهُ الَّذِي رَفَعَ السَّمَاوَاتِ بِغَيْرِ عَمَدٍ تَرَوْنَهَا ثُمَّ اسْتَوَى عَلَى الْعَرْشِ  وَسَخَّرَ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ كُلٌّ يَجْرِي لأَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى  يُدَبِّرُ الأَمْرَ يُفَصِّلُ الآيَاتِ لَعَلَّكُم بِلِقَاء رَبِّكُمْ تُوقِنُونَ

Holy Quran Surah 2: Ayah115 To Allah belong the East and the West: Therefore, whither you turn, thither is Allah's purpose; Surely Allah is Ample in giving, All ─ Knowing. وَلِلّهِ الْمَشْرِقُ وَالْمَغْرِبُ فَأَيْنَمَا تُوَلُّواْ فَثَمَّ وَجْهُ اللّهِ إِنَّ اللّهَ وَاسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ

Getting closer at 10 cm...We can delineate the leaves Cm

At this distance it is possible to observe the structure of the leaf Cm

The cellular structure starts showing Mm

The cells can be defined. You can see the union between them micron

Start our trip inside the cell microns

The nucleus of the cell is visible micron

Again we change the meassuring unit to adapt to the miniscule size. You can see the chromosomes Angstrom

In this micro universe the DNA chain is visible Angstrom

Chromosome blocks can be studied Angstrom

It appears like clouds of electrons... These are carbon atoms that form our world. You notice the resemblance of the microcosmos with the macrocosmos Angstrom

In this miniature world we can observe the electrons orbiting the atoms picometer

An immense empty space between the nucleus and the electron orbits Picometer

At this incredibly miniscule size we can observe the nucleus of the atom Fentometer

Now we can observe the nucleus of the carbon atom Fentometer

Here we are in the field of the scientific imagination, face to face with a proton Fentometer

Examine the quark partícules There is no more to go... At the limits of current scientific knowledge. This is the limit of matter Atometer

And now...Are you the center of the universe? Are you the special creature of the Creation? What is behind these limits? Are there any limits? Note that going “downwards” we can only go to the power of minus 16ª of 10 and reach the (known?) limits of matter... But upwards we went to the power of 23ª of 10 and stopped... But really we can continue our trip without limits to our imagination!!!... then?...who says that we are aalone in the universe?

Holy Quran Surah 2: Ayah 164 إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَاخْتِلاَفِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَالْفُلْكِ الَّتِي تَجْرِي فِي الْبَحْرِ بِمَا يَنفَعُ النَّاسَ وَمَا أَنزَلَ اللّهُ مِنَ السَّمَاء مِن مَّاء فَأَحْيَا بِهِ الأرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا …لآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ

Holy Quran Surah 2: Ayah 164 Surely in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the night and the day, And the ships that run in the sea with what profits men, and the water that Allah sends down from the cloud, then gives life with it to the earth ….. These are signs for a people who understand.

Thank You and May Allah Bless You
