Very cool!
Louie Giglio did a sermon "If the Earth were the size of a golf ball" that touched on the scale of the universe, going through some astronomical objects and seeing how many "golf balls" wide they are (if the Earth were a golf ball.) I think Canis Majoris was in there...
Very strongly religious, so I won't link it here. I've found people on forums start jumping up and down when that happens.

Pretty cool! The University of Colorado campus has a scale model of the solar system that spans the campus. It's pretty trippy to walk along and look at the sizes of the planets compared to the distance you just walked.
Oh, I was just thinking about that site the other day. I'm sad to say I never made it through page by page and skipped a lot once I got past Mars.
