Where'd that astronomy link go?

Does anyone remember where/what that link was that showed basically everything from electrons in an atom to the plane of the ecliptic and beyond? It was like a 2 or 3 minute video that pans out to like 20 million light years away and, well, beyond, I guess.

My son is old enough to understand that we live on Earth now, and he keeps asking me why there are so many stars. I figured this would be fun to show him but I can't find it.

I'm not sure if this is it, it's 10 minutes long instead of 2, but I immediately thought of the classic Powers of Ten: Youtube.

I found it, just had to follow the link you gave me. I thought I posted it here in response but somehow it didn't work. Thanks, though.
