ok so, this post reminds me, a while ago i archived all of the older Vsauce content, and i binged through the vast majority of it, and i can swear there was a video from him about the scale of the universe, or the scale of things in the universe, but i can't for the life of me find it.

Either it's hiding somewhere, or i'm making some shit up and it isn't real lol.

it's quite possibly somewhere in there. The blessing and the curse of Vsauce videos is that you never know what's going to be inside of it

yeah, that's kind of the problem i'm having lol, doesnt help that his video titles are often a little obtuse.

you got me to rewatch a couple of my favourites and there's a bit about the scale of the singal we send out to space in Messages For the Future. Maybe it was that?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

could be, but i remember a video covering the scales of stars either as a focus, or as a reference, including a segment where the earths sun is quite literally too small to see. But i might be making that last part up.

Not Vsauce, but corridor crew did a video like that.

Or maybe its this from the D!NG channel hosted by Vsauce Jake

Maybe it was by a different educational YouTuber. I'm thinking Veritasium.

that's possible, but vasuce has a very specific video style, i guess i should probably go watch a couple veritasium videos to be sure lol.

The obvious answer is that it's actually something related to "the scale of the universe" which is another really cool project, but i don't think it's that one either.
