An Atlas of the Universe. Sort of like Powers of Ten, but with lots of explanatory content.

Metafilter needs a better search engine. Still, I love that site so I'm glad it got it's own front-page post.

moonbiter: I officially suck. I think this was my first double post. Sorry. I rarely bother with MeFi's (admittedly) flawed search engine, and usually just google the site. I googled on the URL, and just on 'anzwers', and didn't find anything. Why isn't Google coming up with it?
