If you started at The Sun, and travelled at the speed of light, it would take you just over 8 minutes to reach Earth, then a whopping 5 hours and 31 minutes to reach the farthest planet from us; Pluto. At this speed, can you guess how long it would take to reach the nearest star to us (Alpha Centauri)? A few days? Yeah right. Weeks? Nowhere near. Months? Still way off. Believe it or not, it would take an astonishing 5 years! Amazing right? Watch this amazing simulation as it takes you on a journey to the edge of the known Universe, as it shows you how massive it really is, and how small and insignificant we really are.
