This is why I loved Bo Burnham's "Inside". Laughed so much at that film when it first came out. Nowadays it almost gives me flashbacks. This is basically how I did lockdown as well. The result was a web app called VOS where you can plan walks which help you wrap your head around astronomical scales: https://vos.ajmoon.com https://vos.ajmoon.com This also eventually turned into a series of TikToks: https://www.tiktok.com/@vos.spacewalks https://www.tiktok.com/@vos.spacewalks

  Huzzah for VOS! I've always been a sucker for solar system walks but being able to effortlessly superimpose one on my home is golden.
