This ingenious website made by David Paliwoda shows how far Mars is from Earth in a metric all us Internet lovers understand: pixels. If Earth was a 100 pixels wide, how far would Mars be? To start off, the moon would be 3000 pixels away (and 27 pixels wide). Mars?

428,00 pixels away. And boy it takes forever to get there. Even in pixels. Check out the website here. [Distance to Mars via Digg]]
