The World is a tiny speck in the crack of another World


When we think about sizes, being big and small it is easy to imagine. But when it comes to extremes in sizes it is hard to picture. So small that we cannot see or too large that we cannot see. For example tiny microrganisms or the gigantic universe. With this topic could come the question of is the world a tiny speck in the crack of another world. Our whole universe could be the size of the nucleus of an element of another world (microscopic!) !!

This thought was explored in the Doctor seuss movie 'Horton hears a Who'. In this movie a big elephant named Horton, lives in a jungle and hears a small cry from a speck of dust on top of a flower. He decides to protect the flower, and later finds out that living on the speck of dust are the Who's, who live in Whoville. They have no idea, and don't believe the fact that their whole world is a tiny speck of dust in another giant world!

There could be one thounsand billion trillion katillion million worlds in our world, and we could be a tiny speck in the crack of another World!
