I feel useless and insignificant...but somehow...hopeful.

I've seen this so many times before and still can't comprehend the size of some of these things. Soooo, I feel stupid.  :headscratch:

Enjoy this link to an accurate scale of our planets in both size and distance from one another. http://omgspace.net/

I feel like having a bowl of pistachios with a glass of Pepsi.

It's an awesome world we live in, I wish I could live long enough to see the day we achieve interstellar space travel. But until then,  :cheers: to the unknown and beyond.

That's pretty amazing, the fact that we could even find that stuff is still amazing lol

How far away that VY Canis sun thing is away from us that we can't see something so big? (giggity) (but seriously)

I'm currently in an astronomy class, this doesn't really make me feel more than a speck of dust. However there's things that are 500,000,000,000,000,000 times bigger than what is on the last picture.


Also, if I told you the size of the universe it'd have f**tupled by like 900 trillion light years before I finished the sentence.  :banana:


That's the universe for ya!

"You are a fluke of the universe. You have no right to be here. Whether you believe it or not, the universe is laughing behind your back."

Cool pic too. Perspective where none can ever be had.

Hitch hikers Guide to the galaxy sums it up for me :

Space is really big , mind bogglingly big , you may think it's a long way to the chemists but that's just peanuts compared to space......and so on.
