A matter of scale

I got the following series of pics from a friend in an e-mail. I don't know what the accreditation is for these pics, but it certainly gives us an idea of our place in the universe!







Antares is the 15th brightest star in the sky and is more than 1000 light years away.

Thanks to B. Allen for the e-mail.
