Sense of Scale
20,000x
We've now magnified our view 20,000 times, and the big round shape
to the right is the head of our previous fractal flea. Like the
60-foot-tall farmer who finds Gulliver when he's marooned in the
Land of Brobdingnag—we can't forget Swift, can we?—the
larger flea dwarfs yet another, even tinier flea clinging to its
long "mouthparts." (Run with us here a bit.)
