Have you seen this video
of the 2nd largest aquarium in the world?
It's been popular on many different sites
It's beautifully framed and pretty neat, especially in high resolution.
It's the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium in Okinawa , Japan.
As the 2nd largest in the world, I wondered:
what's the largest?
The Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta
claims itself as the worlds largest
with 8 million gallons of water.
The aquarium contains the largest collection of
giant grouper
potato grouper
Humphead Wrasse
Tarpon
Giant Trevally
Batfish, Sawfish
Blacktiped Reef Sharks
and Wobbegong Sharks
ever in an aquarium.
Also large:
Is Godzilla.
But, not really.
As you can see
this monster size comparisons chart
gets right to the difference in size
of monsters in the movies.
From Cloverfield it was the biggest monster
with the little budget
that has had the largest size.
On that chart that is.
Clearly, the sand worms from Dune were excluded.
Similar looks to colossal terrestrial Annelid
and Sea Lampry.
The Shai-Hulud work their way through the Arrakis desert
worshiped for being godlike.
But they will eat you.
But forget this chart.
These beasts are regularly a 1/4 of a mile long.
One sighting has reported a worm 1/2 a league in length.
That's 2,778 meters.
Almost 2 miles.
I'm just saying.
People have been reporting that the ISS
which is about a football field long
is spectacular to see these days from Earth.
And for the next several days
for those who have missed it
you can refer to this chart.
I know what you're thinking:
How does the ISS size up?
At 107.4 meters long
the ISS is the largest space station ever built.
That we know of.
A little smaller than the USS Enterprise
the Death Star and the New Molly
a bio-engeneered, Texas-sized, wingless ship
which can destroy entire planets with a single blast.
I'm just saying.
Largest thing?
A black hole 100,000 tredagrams big
equivalent to about 50 billion suns.
Say some.... say others
Seen today from 12 billion years ago
a giant blob structure
200 billion light years wide.
Likely, a cluster of galaxies.
But is this there really such a thing
as just any one thing?
Or is it all just an illusion?
And does it matter?
No.
