Using light year powers of 10, we will jump from Jupiter (0.0001 ly) all the way out to GN-z11 (13.4 Gly), one of the farthest galaxies in the universe. Space is incomprehensively large:

Jupiter
gas giant

~0.0001 ly (53 minutes)

Eris
dwarf planet
Kuiper Belt
~0.001 ly (8.7 hours)

Sedna
dwarf planet
inner edge of inner Oort Cloud
~0.01 ly (3.6 days)

no cataloged objects
inner Oort Cloud
~0.1 ly = 36.5 days

no cataloged objects
outer edge of outer Oort Cloud
~1 ly

Sirius
binary star
Canis Major
~10 ly (8.6 ly)

Hyades
open star cluster
Taurus
~100 ly (150 ly)

Flame Nebula
Orion
~1000 ly (1,300 ly)

Small Sagittarius Star Cloud

Leo I Dwarf
Milky Way satellite galaxy
Local Group
~1 million ly (0.8 Mly)

Silver Needle Galaxy
spiral galaxy
Canes Venatici I Group

Hercules
~1 billion ly

GN-zll
high-redshift galaxy
Ursa Major
~13.4 billion ly light-travel distance
(~32 billion ly present proper distance)

No talking heads or bloviating, just nice 4K imagery set to inspiring music.
