Astronomical is a scale model of the solar system in a 12-volume set of books. The sun takes up most of pages 1 and 2, followed by page after page of complete blackness until page 63, which features a barely-visible Mercury. Watching a video of the artist flipping through the first book is probably the first time I really understood how incredibly empty the universe is. Beautiful!
