Thought some here would be interested in seeing the earth compared to other objects in the universe.

We are so entrenched in the bubbles of our social lives that sometimes we forget how insignificant some of the things are when put against the whole image. And while for some people this realization might be comforting, that a spilled coffee, a lost job or a loss of a relationship is just such a small fraction of things happening in the universe, for others the thought can be absolutely terrifying.

Why not take a closer look at what’s out there and compare how vast the surrounding universe is compared to our little green planet? See for yourself just how big Jupiter is compared to North America? Or how big our sun is compared to the largest observed star? Maybe you’ll have to stop for a second and re-evaluate how you perceive everything around you!

I've always been fascinated by Space and the Universe. Earth is just a microscopic spec in this endless vastness. If there is such a thing as the Afterlife and Reincarnation, I hope to come back someday as an astronaut in a world resembling Star Trek. I hope humanity is wise enough to achieve such a lifestyle.
 
If there are ( as Carl Sagan used to say) "billyons, and billyons" of galaxies with billions and billions of stars and billions and billions of planets, then the universe has a definite pattern of evolvement. There is a definite order to the universe. So, while there's no proof YET, life logically must exist wherever the conditions are right. One thing I truly regret is not being alive when we find evidence of life somewhere else in the universe.
