That fact that 100% of people don't find this absolutely amazing is beyond me. I'm not a cosmologist or scientist on any level, just a regular person with a regular 9-5 and middle class income and there is not a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about how vast and beautiful the universe is. I don't get how everyone isn't just as fascinated.

I love this video as it starts with Moon as a reference point and adds on bigger and bigger structures in the universe.

Where it says "the universe" it gets wrong. This is the observable universe. Small but important difference! That's how far light has traveled since the big bang. 14.7 billion light years. So the furthest point we can see is 14.7 light years away. Every day our observable universe gets a lightday wider. So the universe itself extends far beyond what we can see. Its true size is probably well outside what we can even imagine.

There is a game out there called Elite Dangerous. I think that will blow your mind.

Now do one the other way! The scale of the small and subatomic is also unfathomable. In fact, we are closer in relative size and scale to the entire observable universe, than the Planck Length, the shortest measurable distance. We are stuck in-between such unimaginable scales! Truly awe inspiring, if you ask me.

Seeing that makes it unfathomable that people still believe we are the only life form in it all.

This is mind blowing. I suddenly feel like my problems are ridicule and insignificant. Soothing, somehow.

I like how they stop it just before it gets to your mom.

How is the size of the universe relative to the age of the universe? Is it simply time multiplied by the speed of light (times two)? Bigger? Smaller? Why?

HD 100546 b One of the biggest possible planets in the universe Also a failed star The Sun [Sol] Yellow main-sequence star Our host star in the solar system Sirius A Blue-white main-sequence star Pollux Orange Giant Fun Fact: It may turn to a red giant if it continues its nuclear fusion. Arcturus Red-orange Giant Fun Fact: If it replaced the Sun, then it will suck up Mercury and heat up the rocky planets! Aldebaran Red-orange Giant Fun Fact: It is getting to its red giant phase in the future. Rigel Blue Supergiant Fun Fact: It will turn to a red supergiant in 10 million years. Pistol Star Blue Hypergiant Fun Fact: There is a 1% chance that Pistol Star will turn to a red giant at the same time as Rigel. Antares Red Supergiant Fun Fact: It is approximately 70% the size of Betelgeuse. Betelgeuse Red Supergiant Fun Fact: It will go supernova in approximately 1 to 10 million years and turn into a neutron star. VY Canis Majoris Red Hypergiant Fun Fact: It may go supernova in 100,000 years. There is a 96% chance that it will go hypernova, and turn into a black hole the size of its shrinking core. UY Scuti Red Supergiant Fun Fact: It is the biggest known star in the Milky Way galaxy.

The Milky Way, the galaxy in which our Sun orbits our supermassive black hole, Saggitarius A, every 200 million years. The Andromeda Galaxy will collide with the Milky Way in a couple or few billion years. Other galaxies, as seen by the Hubble Deep Field images. Laniakea Supercluster Hawaiian = Immeasurable Heaven A supercluster of galaxies, where the Milky Way is one of 100,000. The Cosmic Web, which there are billions and billions of galaxies.
