            There's another interesting scale model here, of a hydrogen atom.

            The electron is 1 pixel, and the slider bar needs using a fair way to see it.

            In a way it's slightly misleading though, because in fact every electron (or any other particle for that matter), is arguably a complicated "process" spread out over the entire Universe.

                  How is science explaining what is beyond the known universe?
