Perspective...

I got this in an email. I thought it was cool.




Need a perspective, try this on for size.























I certainly thought this was enlightening.
Did you even realize we knew much beyond our sun?


It's a big universe.










Antares is the 15th brightest star in the sky.

It is more than 1000 light years away.
1 light year is 63240 AU(Astronomical Units)
1 Astronomical Unit = 92,955,887.6 miles



The universe is so vast it is not comprehensible by the human mind.
It would be like an ant trying to understand the wonder of the internet.
It can't be done.

The universe humbles us, as it should. (How much more ought we be humbled by the creator of such a universe?)
