This brief overview attempts to convey the wonders of magnetic fields in astronomy. Presented are sketches of known magnetic fields that exist over a broad range of astronomical sizes, ranging from Earth size to cosmic dimensions, aand comments on the physical processes involved. The review is presented as a series of schematic views, each one covering a frame 100 times larger than the one previous. In this manner Figure 1 examines human scales (1 metre = 100 cm), Figure 2 examines scales 100 times larger (100 metres = 10 000 cm), Figure 3 examines scales 100 times larger again (10 thousand metres = 1 million cm), and so on. Cosmological scales are examined in Figure 14 (100 trillion trillion metres = 10**28 cm).
