Zoomable journey from human skeleton to the edge of the universe

Original: Show HN: Scroll from your own skeleton to the edge of the observable universe

A new interactive web project lets users scroll seamlessly from the scale of a human skeleton out to the edge of the observable universe, moving through cells, cities, planets and galaxies in one continuous zoom. It was shared as a personal project, with early readers trying it out and discussing the scale comparison it visualizes.

Why now: It is a striking hands-on visualization of cosmic scale that people are sharing and testing as it circulates on tech forums.
