this is very impressive. what is the term for lining up multiple images at different "zoom" levels like this? is it any way similar to google earth/space.

Pyramid tiling is the general technique used by Google Maps and similar systems to track images as different zoom levels; also similar techniques are used for progressive rendering for example in JPEG 2000.

It's a mosaic, pretty common tool in astrophotography
