Here's a mesmerizing little video from NASA:

"Bad Astronomer" (Phil Plait) put it up on Slate. I knew of him (mda liked him), but I didn't want to go searching (to painful to think about) - but he came to me! It's nice, he posts things a couple of days a week.

If you've got the time I recommend going through and watching other videos, too. I saw one on Earth's tectonic plate movement, how we're going to end up merged with the Andromeda galaxy,1 and a few others.

1I wish we weren't just going to turn into an elliptical galaxy - basically just a big blob. Of course, that will end in about 6 billion years so I don't have to worry about it.
