i never get tired of visual effects used to showcase the relative sizes of planets and stars.
the music is Rubber Bullet by stakka and K Tee. i found the video from digg via neat-o-rama.
if you like this, check out the powers of ten video by the eames, played to the galaxy song by monty python: HERE.
or see how hurricanes relate to spiral galaxies and brain cells relate to large scale structure in the universe!

Very awesome, videos like this always give me good-bumps XD.
Oh very nice.
"Small blue dot" is about right, although you'd need a powerful magnifying glass to see it. =8O
Oh, I love stuff like this...
... by which of course I mean "pale blue dot". Shoot me now. =#)
Great find!
Linkback (and link to powers of 10).

Very nice, the music too. You know, 'Pluto' looks suspiciously like Ganymede ...
Cool video! Too bad I can't even see Earth because Antares was waay to big.
