That ending puts me in mind of
2001: A Space Odyssey. The end is the beginnings, etc.

Expat, Men In Black does much the same thing with the galaxy and a marble.

I equated that more with the quip in
Hitchhiker's Guide to the planet that sent an invasion fleet to neighboring planet and it got swallowed by a dog.

Life holds infinite universes without and within.

This seems to be the latest version of "Powers of 10." A book was published by the Scientific American Library that traced phenomena from 1 meter and expanding in powers of 10 (1, 10, 100, 1000, etc) and then decreasing in powers of 10 (1, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, etc.). The publication was to show how few powers of ten encompassed the entire universe from the largest to smallest things known. The circles in the video show whenever we reach the next power of 10.
The book is cool. This video is even cooler. Thanks.

How fitting at this time with the news of the loss of that Great British eccentric astronomer, Sir Patrick Moore. He truly great man remembered fondly by millions.
