In this lab and activity section, students learn to appreciate and understand the scope of science: from the very large and far away, to the very tiny and close-up. A video teaches students about exponential notation and how powers of ten work. The visual clip begins 10 million light years from Earth, moving through space to the Earth, and down to the subatomic world of protons and electrons in powers of 10. A Java activity demonstrates how various specimens appear at different magnifications. A teacher page contains materials, teaching ideas, and extension activities.
