OMG SPACE
It's entirely possible that OMG Space is the longest website you'll ever encounter. The distances between the planets / stars shown are to scale with a ratio of 1:647 - so "if Mercury is 57,909,050km from the Sun, with the ratio of 1:647, the distance is boiled down to 89503.94, so 89,503 pixels..." It's an easy way to show the massive distance between bodies in our solar system and pretty fun to click around in as well.
