  • The image has a resolution of 2,297,216 × 891,702 pixels, totaling about 2 trillion pixels (2 terapixels).
  • If displayed on a standard PC monitor, the screen would need to be 650 by 250 meters (covering 23 FIFA-sized soccer fields).
  • The panorama is 626 times larger than the world's largest camera module (3,200 megapixels).
  • Compared to Full HD (2 million pixels), this image is 1 million times larger, requiring 1 million screens to display fully.
  • Compared to 4K (8 million pixels), it is 250,000 times larger, needing 250,000 screens.
  • If each pixel were 1×1 cm in a line, the total length would be 20,484,321 km (enough to circle Earth 511 times or reach the Moon 53 times).
  • Viewing each pixel for 1 second would take 65,000 years—longer than human civilization.
  • Access passes are available for one day ($2), one week ($5), or one month ($9).
  • The project was funded privately, requiring massive storage, equipment, and infrastructure.
  • Souvenirs inspired by Oslo are available, with worldwide shipping at low rates.
