That is truly awesome and amazing. And ours is only one galaxy out of potentially billions of billions or more. It makes me wish I were a starship captain.
It's strange to me that the universe is so unfathomably large compared to us. I mean, it doesn't have to be. It could be much smaller and we could still exist just as we are. Yet, we don't even know for sure if there is a boundary to the universe. We could live in a universe that was only ... say ... the size of a few solar systems. But, instead, we get a really big one to think about.
I'm not sure how I feel about that, but I guess I'm just going to have to accept it.
