Inspired somewhat by Grim...'s excellent journey through the stars graphic, I want to visualise the differences in the size of data.

Is there an easily available tool one can use to visualise the relative size of a bunch of different values e.g.

1 byte
1 GB
1 sextillion bytes
1 zettabyte.

Help!

Is there anything that does this, but in relation to the size of double-decker buses or Olympic sized swimming pools? Or football pitches?

Or whales, which only seem to exist in net form, never three dimensions

Exactly that kind of thing. Though I need to make it myself.
