However, I cant think of anything else as important as exploring the massive, unlimited vastness of the space around us. And yeah, it is just the stuff close to us that we can reach, and that’s not a lot. People dont think it’s important because most people cant comprehend just how massive it is, and what that all potentially holds.

Anyone reading this that is maybe shakin’ their head at this, understand this; space is bigger than you can imagine: think how big a grain of sand is, now imagine that’s our whole planet, and every tiny grain of sand is another planet or asteroid or any of the million things that’s out there. Now imagine the beach is 1000 miles wide and deep. How many grains is that? Well dont count them yet coz we’re not done! Now imagine that beach is one of many, millions in fact, and all of those make up a desert, a desert that’s part of a planet. A planet sized desert of nothing but grains of sand, and each grain is a whole world. If you can imagine this, then you’ve got an idea of how big a FRACTION of our universe is.

Now tell me there’s nothing out there to find.

From one space geek to another I love this article! There are few things as iconic and productive in unifying humanity as space travel is.

Imagine this- when NASA showed the first photo of the Earth hanging out there in space- relatively alone -That was it… we are here -all of us -on this little blue drop in the sea of space. Suddenly we were all brothers and sisters -we were all part of each other in a way that we previously could not fathom.

I cannot tell you how grateful I am to read this article. It is so important. It is so much better than say establishing a nationality through witnessing the first attack on American soil since WWII. It is so much more universal and inclusive….
