Geek talk by the creators:

The final magnification of the Mandelbrot fractal is 6.066e+228 (2760)

Want some perspective?

  • 1E6 Vancouver Island
  • 1E9 Jupiter’s radius
  • 1E12 Earth’s orbit
  • 1E18 distance to Alpha Centauri
  • 1E21 Milky Way galaxy
  • 1E30 large doesn’t cover it!
  • 1E42 size of electron to the universe
  • 1E228 incomprehensibly big…but we did it!

For the record, 1 to 6e228 is like expanding a proton to 7000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times the size of the visible universe.

(Proton has 1 femtometer diameter, universe has 93 billion light year diameter)

If you were actually traveling into the fractal, you would be moving faster than the speed of light.
