From the sun to Jupiter at the speed of light

There's a good animation on vimeo showing a trip from the  centre of the Sun out to just beyond Jupiter at the speed of light. It shows either: (a) the solar system is actually enormous, given that it takes over forty minutes just to get to Jupiter and there's an awful lot more to go; or (B) the speed of light isn't actually all that fast, given that it's the ultimate speed. Of course you wouldn't actually perceive this journey like this as the time in your reference frame would be frozen.
