I have been trying for the last few days in creating an Earth Zoom also known 
as a Cosmic Zoom or as I like to think of it simply as "image nesting". I found 
a tutorial for it in AE and it seams straight forward. It can also be done in 
Flame with the same logical steps, however I have been unable to do the same 
thing using Nuke. The problem is that once a node passes through a merge the 
pixels are baked down. You can have transform nodes one after the other doing 
inverse things and because of CONCATENATING they will cancel each other out 
without effect. but if you scale something down using a transform and merge it 
with another plate the output can not be inversely scaled back up with out 
degradation. Short of creating giant 30K and larger images (using a reformat to 
nest them ) I can't make something work as efficiently as possible. Below is 
the tutorial of the After Effects  setup. If any one can give some pointers 
that would be an amazing help
