Powers of Ten takes us on an adventure
in magnitudes. Starting at a picnic by the lakeside in Chicago, this
famous film transports us to the outer edges of the universe. Every ten
seconds we view the starting point from ten times farther out until our
own galaxy is visible only a s a speck of light among many others.
Returning to Earth with breathtaking speed, we move inward- into the
hand of the sleeping picnicker- with ten times more magnification every
ten seconds. Our journey ends inside a proton of a carbon atom within a
DNA molecule in a white blood cell. POWERS OF TEN © 1977 EAMES OFFICE
