http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/4/2009/12/500x_universering.jpg (http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/4/2009/12/universering.jpg)There can be only one Universe Ring (http://gizmodo.com/tag/universering/). Unless you believe in the Multiverse. Then you can have as many as you want!
The Universe portion of this ring lies in the tiny dot. Within the dust particle-sized imperfection lies a tiny model. A model of what theorists like Stephen Hawking say our Universe looks like. You'll need some magnification to see it clearly, but it's there, inspired by scientists like Stephen Hawking and the anthropic theory.
Artist/creator To22 says the ring "puts our daily pursuits into perspective and reminds us that we are always a part of something bigger."
That's well and good and all, but I can seriously see this being used instead as a geek's dream wedding band. "I gave you the Universe, baby." Or something. Let me know if she/he says yes.
