Summary

DescriptionThe Scientific Universe.png	English: As an introduction to science, the Scale of the Universe is mapped to the Branches of Science and the Hierarchy of Science. The Scale of the Universe capture the average diameters of key systems. The scale needs to be cubed to make volume; it takes about 60 trillion atoms to make a human cell, 100 trillion cells to make a person, and 108 billion people have lived to build modern society. The hierarchy of the sciences captures major areas of study in science. The images capture the fundamental building block for the scientific branch. Math is built up from binary logic, physics is built on atomic scale physical laws, life science is built by cellular behavior calculated through natural selection, social science is built on the human brain, and earth and space science begins with our own planetary body.

	20:26, 30 October 2018	4,050 × 2,700 (3.71 MB)	Efbrazil	I had gotten too cute by collapsing hierarchy with branches and people justifiably complained. Tried to keep the good parts of the new design while switching back to the old design.
	21:10, 10 July 2018	4,050 × 2,700 (5.27 MB)	Efbrazil	Expanded categories for clarity
	17:02, 15 May 2018	4,050 × 2,700 (6.36 MB)	Efbrazil	Removed background image as it was distracting, renamed slide, tweaked atom image
	21:24, 19 November 2016	1,600 × 1,200 (3.55 MB)	Efbrazil	Full graphical redesign, removing more controversial "hierarchy of science", which can be implied from the ordering of sciences
	17:17, 29 June 2013	1,600 × 1,200 (1,003 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	graphical tweaks 2

	16:40, 27 June 2013	1,600 × 1,200 (1,022 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	On balance, the cubes were more confusing than not, so I replaced them with just clear circular versions of images. The graphic is information-dense enough as is.
	17:43, 21 May 2013	1,600 × 1,200 (971 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	A few more visual tweaks to balance size of graphics
	17:31, 20 May 2013	1,600 × 1,200 (940 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	Visual enhancements, no content changes
	15:30, 15 May 2013	1,600 × 1,200 (942 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	Changing logic graphic from tesseract to geodesic sphere covered in ones and zeros. This is done to be more consistent with building block theme. The new image is my own creation.
	19:00, 10 May 2013	1,600 × 1,200 (939 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	Added connector from physics & chemistry to earth science & space science. Other minor visual tweaks.
	01:17, 10 May 2013	1,600 × 1,200 (935 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	Changed earth science to include earth and space. This completes the scale mapping and is more inclusive.

	23:38, 6 May 2013	1,600 × 1,200 (853 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	Includes geoscience to be more complete with regards to the natural sciences. Also, the physical science, life sciences, and social sciences have graphics as cubes, to indicate they are built of these objects, not that they operate or are studied purel...
	22:26, 22 April 2013	1,600 × 1,107 (740 KB)	Efbrazil~commonswiki	Improvements to disciplines category as per review
