How Big Are You?

"If you are thinking a year ahead, sow seed. If you are thinking ten years ahead, plant a tree. If you are thinking one hundred years ahead, educate the people." Old Chinese Proverb

THIS is fascinating – it's rather dazzling to see it presented this way.

 

 
I CERTAINLY THOUGHT THIS WAS ENLIGHTENING. 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.

 

NOW HOW BIG ARE YOU?


NOW TRY TO WRAP YOUR MIND AROUND THIS………

THIS IS A HUBBLE TELESCOPE ULTRA DEEP FIELD INFRARED VIEW OF COUNTLESS
'ENTIRE' GALAXIES BILLIONS OF LIGHT-YEARS AWAY.
 

BELOW IS A CLOSE-UP OF ONE OF THE DARKEST REGIONS OF THE PHOTO ABOVE.

 

HUMBLING,
ISN'T IT?

There is really something fascinating about space that both humbles us and makes us stand taller. It is one of those thing that makes me think, that in all of that space, even if I am not the only one, I at least have an obligation to do something in the small space and time that I am give – simply because I can. Unlike 99.9999999% of all of objects in the universe I am not sitting here to just be acted upon. I can chose to leave a positive mark.

Hey Robert I liked your post. I don't know if you are a man of faith or not but I am and this reminds me how big God really is.

this makes it pretty difficult not to believe in extra terrestrial life no?
you should take a look at the kepler project, it's an giant undertaking to find earth size planets in that lot.
