Description
Illustrates the relationship between the number ten and the size of the physical universe. First focusing on the reclining figure of a man, the camera zooms outward to the edges of the known universe; then back again, past the man to the nucleus of a carbon atom. Changes in size, distance and time are described by factors of ten. Mixed live action and animation.
