Here's a couple crazy facts to put time in perspective.

Egyptian Pharaoh Cleopatra lived closer in time to the creation of the internet than to the building of the Pyramids.

Tyrannosaurus Rex lived closer to now than to when Stegosaurus lived.

One comment had me rolling:

"The last words I understood were ‘observable universe’ subsequently followed by a series of brain-melting numbers and terrifying blue cubes."

Pretty cool. By their calculations we are just getting started.  Trying to figure how long my energy has to wait for the next big bang. Lets see.. ((((10)^10)^10)^56)-13,000,000,000= um says "err". So there you have it, Err real long time.

Interesting, but hardly relevant to day to day life. No matter what science does, finite man can not fully understand the concept of eternity and more importantly, God.  :old:

To be fair, if you got even close to understanding or visualising the scale of the observable universe you are doing better than me
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.

If you take science scales and reconcile them to Genesis all the animals were made 'yesterday,' and God is still resting on the seventh, OR we are just beginning the eighth day.

So much for "time."
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

Yeah. And lots of other points too!

One thing that's not a assumption.  These numbers are wrong. Not so vague it can be right, simply wrong because of limited knowledge.   On such a large scale, 10^10^10^56, one little mis step in the math can send the results to the moon when the target was the ISS. Plus, so much we dont know; to the point, anything is still possible.
