<< I love this one, a nice representation of how insignificant everything is, as well as how much we are missing when we look at anything as simple as a leaf >>



couldn't have said it better myself.

to understand the atom, we must look to the universe
to understand the universe, we must look to the atom

I saw an IMAX movie exactly like that, except it started at the smallest known things..the little things that make up atoms, and moved up to a view of the known universe.

Pretty cool link.

So the earth doesn't even make .00000000000001 % (just a guess) of the universe! There's definitely life out there.. I'm telling you!

actually that's probably the figure for this galaxy. multiply that a few hundred quadrillion times and that's roughly how much of the universe it is...

EDIT: wtf am i saying. that's probably the figure for only our solar system? its so damn big you just can't fathom

Cool

 

[DannyLove]

this brings back the same question I always ask myself. Since we're so freakin small compared to the universe, do you honestly think we're alone. I mean, serious. Parallel Universe? Its a bit scary being reminded on how small, we the human race, are. Within a large galaxy we exist, and from that galaxy we have only covered so much.
These types of effidence really gets my mind going, because it allows me to think about reality. Not just our own pathetic world, not our world where we kill each other, not our world that is literally falling apart. I actually think of what and why are we truely here. Urg. I hate thinking like this. I wish i can fly millions of miles and see for myself. Million Miles Away from Home

danny~!

 

[ace31216]

Ohhh.... cool.

 

[Spoooon]

Physically we may be insignificant, but in other ways? Maybe not. In a large enough sample, there's bound to be at least one more planet with life on it, but compared to all the planets that have no life? We're pretty special indeed.

 

[HansHurt]

<<You're insignificant. >>


No, YOU are :disgust:















So there.
