- KyleBerezin 3y agoThis is so classic, the Simpsons parodied it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEuEx1jnt0M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEuEx1jnt0M
- aamargulies 3y agoWait, does this not leak the state that Springfield is in? That’s always been a ‘secret’ the Simpsons kept hidden and is the subject of other gags!
- eesmith 3y agoWhen I was a kid the local science museum had this version on a film loop. Now the local science museum has Cosmic Eye (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_Eye)[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_Eye)[1] on a loop, which was inspired by Powers of Ten and by Cosmic Zoom[2] [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Are9dDbW24 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Are9dDbW24 [2] https://www.nfb.ca/film/cosmic_zoom/ https://www.nfb.ca/film/cosmic_zoom/
