Ever seen "Men in Black 1" ;)

But truth be told, it's not an original idea and I *think* I had such 
view from even before that movie and was delighted by the ending...

The Bohr model gave way to more accurate quantum models.  But still, we 
see the solar system and its individual planets this way only because 
they look incredibly slow to us.  If time was going incredibly fast, we 
would see nothing but a blur and we'd resort to statistical means of 
measuring energy to give us a picture of what is going on.
