Powers-of-ten zoom from quarks to cosmos

One unbroken 94-second zoom from three quarks out to the observable universe, 42 powers of ten. The creator told Claude Fable 5.5 to pick its own idea; no video model was used, and the visuals and music are code.

“No video model. The visuals and the music are all code.”

How it was made

The model chose the concept itself. The creator says no video model was used and that the visuals and the music are all code. A different creator's powers-of-ten film is also in the library.

Another powers-of-ten zoom in the library

Look notesby Reference

A dark scientific zoom where each stop is a glowing, soft-focus subject with a scale readout, from a carbon nucleus out past Earth and the Milky Way to the observable universe.

Color
Deep violet, teal and near-black backgrounds, with glowing peach, ice blue, cell green, city-light gold and starlight white.
Type
A large bold number and unit bottom left ("8.4 femtometers", "104 thousand light-years") in white and yellow, a small serif caption under it, and a powers-of-ten scale with an exponent bottom right; a wide caps title "THE LONG WAY OUT" at the end.
Framing
16:9 frames with one centred subject in shallow focus and a constant readout bar along the bottom; every frame keeps the same layout so only the subject and the scale change.
Sound
Music made in code, the creator says.
Structure
A carbon nucleus, DNA, a skin cell, a waving figure of a person, Earth's night lights, the solar system with Jupiter and Saturn labelled, the Milky Way with "You are here", the observable universe, and the closing title beside the figure.
