Cosmic Zoom

I struggled to wonder which forum to post this in, and then it seemed obvious.

Space isn't something limited only to looking up or out.

I remember this little movie as a kid and it blew my little mind. It's been travelling like this ever since and will never stop.

"This film probes the infinite magnitude of space, and its reverse, the ultimate minuteness of matter. Animation art and animation camera achieve this journey to the farthest conceivable point of the universe and then into the tiniest particle of existence--an atom of a living human cell--with a freshness and clarity that would seem impossible with other means of exposition.
Directed by Eva Szasz - 1968"

Enjoy.

Just wow!
I thought (being Canadian) that I had seen almost all the National Film Board of Canada shorts.
Thank you for this!

Very profound, inspiring and relevant for something done in 1968!

Cheers!

Yeah, I was only 3 at the time but saw it a few years later. I know there are many similar concepts in movies and clip today, but because this was hand drawn it adds a certain super Kudos me thinks.
