Have you ever wondered how big the universe is? We casually throw in the word billions and billions to mathematically measure the size of the universe but have you really grasp the size of those numbers?

Here are some videos and picture to help give you an idea.

Whoa...even after years of continuous scientific input about the universe in my mind through my years of study...it still baffles me...

*Another idea about parallel universe story sprouted in my mind*

Wow, this has officially made me feel what a dust mite must feel. We are just so small and secluded... it's rather mind boggling.

its interesting... I never really thought about it... but there would be a sphere of light that are the remnants of the big bang wouldn't there?

I'm always watching things like this. Numbers cannot truly show you the vastness of the universe. This chair, in this room, in this state, on this continent, on this planet, in this solar system, in this extremely small cluster of stars, in the milky way galaxy, among a myriad of hundreds of thousands of similar sized galaxies and clusters of them... it truly humbles a human. I have always believed that there is life of someform out there xD

It amazes me when I see this. It makes all questions like "what is the purpose of life" seem rather foolish when I consider just how insignificant we are.

But it also gives me hope to think that people (as long as we don't kill each other off first) will always keep trying to move forward and search farther. Thinking back to when people once thought it was impossible to travel around the world, I believe interstellar travel will be achieved eventually.

I wonder if there are amazing new planets or even universes out there. Perhaps the universe is like a planet in a giant system of orbiting universes!! Ugh, I hate thinking about space!!! It's all this empty area, but what is it in?? How can there be empty area without some sort of border? Is it really possible for something to be limitless? What is the edge of the universe if there is one?!?!?!

I hate and love pondering the universe...gosh this is so frustrating.
