Zoom By. Istvan Banyai

the book ZOOM by. Istvan Banyai, had many assumptions, but usually the assumptions were wrong. In the beginning of the book when I saw the picture, I immediately thought it was how the sun was created.But really it was only the close up of a roosters crown.The book zoomed in and through the book you saw it zoom out page by page.But pretty much with every new perspective when the book was zooming out. I always had a new prediction in my head.
Once when U was drawing a flower in a vase. I was having some difficulty drawing it. So I decided to move across the room and closer. What I found out was that when I moved I saw a whole different scene and perspective. Then what I had drawn in the beginning was totally different from when I moved. the new perspective helped me a lot with my drawing.
Scientists who study atoms and molecules would probably be interested in close up data. Because you see more detail in the object unlike far away. Unlike a scientist studying astronomy and the planets would want a farther away view. Because you can see more when your farther away.But both perspectives are important in astronomy, because when looking inside a planet we want to see all the details. Unlike when we are studying the planets and universe we want a far away view.
