Sun and stars animation

Does anyone remember the link for that animation of the size of the sun with other stars? The animation started with our sun and then moved out to compare with bigger and bigger stars.

It was on here last year, I think...

Help in finding it again would be appreciated - my wife is teaching the solar system to her Year 5s and I told her about it...so now I HAVE to cough up with the goods and show her the animation.

In expectation..."Thanks!"

Not sure if this is what you wanted - I remember the one with the sun sitting next to Antares etc....

This one is on a similar vein - I think it was posted here last year....
