The story as narrated
Every time you open a website, send a message, or watch a video, something begins moving across the planet.
First, your phone sends your request through Wi-Fi or a mobile network and into the wider internet.
That request is broken into tiny pieces of information called packets. These packets can travel through different routes across a huge network of routers and connections.
Some may travel thousands of kilometres, even crossing oceans through fibre-optic cables on the ocean floor.
Eventually, they reach the server containing the information you requested.
The server sends the answer back, and within seconds, those pieces of data are reassembled on your screen.
Every click is a journey across a physical network connecting the entire planet.
A person's hands holding a glowing smartphone in a dim room. Abstract luminous digital light lines emerge from the phone screen and form a small, spinning holographic planet Earth.
