The NanoMission scaling module enables the players to visualise and understand the spatial relationships between objects at all scales from the pico-meters through nano-meters all the way up to giga-meters.

Using the 3d environment the player can scroll back and forth through a wide range of familiar and interesting objects, from a single hydrogen atom all the way up to the Sun. Information about the objects and visual measurement references are provided, as is also a Character mode where the player can change their size to be the same as the current object’s and walk around to compare themselves with other objects of various sizes.
