I feel small

This stuff makes me wonder what the hell we are doing on this tiny little plannet having little petty fights about nothing when there is something bigger than any human could begin to understand waiting to be explored.

Surely we cant be it...! what a waste if we are.
 
Wow, even though it's been posted before, I'm amazed, don't see any reason there cant be intelligent life in the universe, wheter or not it can find us is totally different, but I imagine there'll be similar 'problems' for them - with us.
 
The universe is really something that always amazes me. I totaly agree with the guy, I don't remember who, who said that instead of fighting ourselves for petty things we should focus on exploring space.

I think the human race is too stupid for this now, people are more interested in living their life, me included, doing pointless stuff aka posting on forums ;) than evolving.

When you think about it, I'm not really sure the way we are advancing is really that great
 
I like to think of it the other way with Us being the large scale & working my way down to microbes, Take things down so small you could fit a Universe on a pin head. This way things like cleaning your nails takes on a whole new meaning as when you pick the dirt from them you could be Destroying an entire universe.
 
Don't forget that many of these larger stars die out much sooner than our own sun, and the fact that some stars are so far away (near the start of the big bang) almost implies that they may be no longer. Finally, recall that the universe has been suggested to have expanded faster than the speed of light for the first few millennia of its existence.

I'm not saying that the universe is empty -- far from it. I'm merely pointing out that things aren't exactly as they appear.

As for generations laughing at us in the future? Why? Since I first understood the scale of all things (or at least from what we currently can see) by simple logic it was obvious that we can't be totally alone. We don't have proof, but we certainly have evidence in the form of probability.

So 13 billion light years away, just imagine what is going on there now. Amazing.

Is that true that by our theories they shouldn't even exist?
 
Interesting question to those who know the answer:

It takes us now roughly 20-24 hours to fly around the earth base on the equator, how long does it take to fly around the Sun? and Juptor/Neptune in that sense too?
 
I see theres a new image just in from the Hubble scope....
