Re: Space is kool thread
It's comforting to know that should we (the human race) cease to exist on Earth, there's always some life flourishing somewhere else.
Plus we might get warp speed drive ships sometime in the future, so that's a possibility too

Re: Space is kool thread
I always felt like life justifies the universe. The universe will probably exist long long long after we are gone, but it seems without us (life) it will all be pointless.
Maybe that is the meaning of life.

Fukken Milky Way is boss
What we'd see in the sky if our eyes were capable of seeing more of the electromagnetic spectrum (stretched out so you could see infrared to X-rays as natural color)
Kinda cool that all that shit exists in the sky but we can't see it with the naked eye. Makes you feel really blind when you look up and see blackness.Last edited by Reincarnate; 03-12-2012, 04:21 PM.Comment

Hubble Ultra Deep Field. What you can see when you take a giant-ass telescope and point it at a really, really tiny patch of blank sky. Each one of those blobs are entire ****ing galaxies.
To give some perspective, our Milky Way Galaxy is about 100,000 light-years across.
If this video isn't instantly one of your top three favorite videos on Youtube, go play in the nearest intersection please.
It's always easy to throw around "our universe is huge" but it really means nothing until you understand just how big it is. And yet, even that massive spacetime sphere of billions of lightyears, we have no idea if we're just a ship in the sea witnessing horizons. Space is disgustingly huge.
If you want to go the opposite direction:
You know how they say a nucleus is like a pin placed in a football stadium representing the size of the atom?
Take an atom and blow it up to the size of the observable universe. That huge-ass sphere you just saw in the last video. A Planck length might be the size of an Earth tree.Last edited by Reincarnate; 03-12-2012, 04:42 PM.Comment
