I finally finished the first entry I will put in for the DA contest that was posted about here a little while ago. The next one I do will be a lot more fitting with my normal style but on this one I wanted to do more of a science oriented bit of ascii art. As per normal the best display method for any of my stuff is white text on black background. .###############################################################################. ################################################################################# ################################################################################# ################################################################################# ################################################################################# ################################################################################# #` '# # ### # # .############. ## .############. .############# # # # ############## ## ############## ############## ##### ### # # ##' `## ## ##' `## ##' # # # # # ## ## ## ## ## ## # ## # # ## ## ## ## ## ##### ## # # ##. ## .## ##. # # #############. ###. .############# ############## Earth # # `############# #### #############' ############## Everest # # `##### #### #####' #####' Water Vapor # # ## ##### #### ##### ##### H2O # # ## ##### #### ##### ##### Hydrogen Atom # # ## .##### #### #####. .## #####.

_.-In alt.ascii-art, Faux_Pseudo wrote the following -._ > I finally finished the first entry I will put in for the DA contest > that was posted about here a little while ago. <snip> One of the things I don't like about ascii art compaired to traditional art is that in a normal sketch book you have lots of abandoned and half finished ideas in it. Ascii art tends to lend itself to only finished works. I did however copy a few things from the process of that last piece though. The section below is my original notes and sketch. Note how stark it is on the actual ascii side of things. =Begin================================ 10^-35 strings 10^-11 hydrogen atom 10^-15 Proton: u u three quarks in a proton d two up, one down 1.60217653(14)x10^-19C size: Femtometer (1 fm = 10^{-15} m = 0.000000000000001 m) 1836 times more mass than an electron 1.6726231 x 10-27 10^-15 Neutron: u d three quarks in a nuetron d two down, one up 1.6746286 x 10-27 kg size: a Femtometer (1 fm = 10^{-15} m = 0.000000000000001 m) 10^-18 electron (1 am = 10^{-18} m = 0.000000000000000001 m). 10^-18 quarks flavors: up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom. .-------. / \ | u-u d-d | | `d' `u' | \ / `-------' 10^-18| x1000| | .----. / \ | (np) | | `' | \____/ 10^-14/ x10000/ / .--. 10^-12 / \ x ( x ) \ / `--' =End================================ I had drawn the water molecule first and worked my way down from there. I did the Mt and then started on the earth. I didn't care for the way the earth was working so I started it again and got what you see in the final cut.

Then I decided against it. Things get abstract toward the bottom of the work and going into galaxies and galactic clusters and a scaled down representation of a 10^53 (1x10^37 light years) universe just didn't seem the right starting point. So I stoppd at the earth which people can recognize even if they don't truly understand it size. =Begin================================ .'.'.'.'.' .'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'. .'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.' .'.''....:::::::::...'.'.' ;;..'.'.'.' .' ..:::::::::::::::::::..'.' `;;..'.'.'.'.' .'.::::::::''.'.'.'.'```:::::..'.'`;;.'.'.'.'.' .'.:::::'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.' ``:::::..'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.' .'.::::'.'.'.'.'.'.'.'.....'.'.'``:::..' .. .'.'.'.' .:::.'.'.'.'.'.'.'::::::::....'.'::::..'`::.'.'.'.'.'.' .'.:::.'.'.'.' .::.'.'........ ::.'.'`:::..' ;: .'.'.'. .':::.'.'.'.'.::'.'.::::::::::::..'.' ::::..'`:.'.'.'.'.'..
