We are so small in the universe.

We are so small in the universe.

Just tiny little specks about the size of Mickey Rooney.

All these Black Holes and the Astrophysicists tell us there isn’t enough matter in the observable universe to account for the Big Bang, so they ‘invent’ Dark Matter to fill in their formulae. Then they discover that there is not enough ‘energy’ to make the formulae work, so they ‘invent’ Dark Energy’ to fix that ‘problem’.....................................

We are so small on earth! Astronauts circling the earth can not see any man made objects during day time except the great wall of china.

We are so small in the universe.

Yep but we becomes much more vocal/active when
you get the area much smaller.

Maybe space is so dark because we live in one massive black hole

WOW!

[ConservativeMind]

That picture should scare each of us.

Ever wonder why no other civilizations are found? It’s due, in part, to lurking black holes that suck up whatever might get started.

[crusty old prospector]

I once had a pet black hole. I can’t figure out where I left it.

[logi_cal869]

AH! So this is what LOFAR does when it’s not mapping lightning.

Geek porn!

[Red Badger]

That would be like having a map of all the Potholes in Pennsylvania..........................

[Sirius Lee]

Geek porn!

Yeah, I saw some of that on ancient amphorae. It was just awful.

This thread needs a picture of the Time Bandits.

All things considered, we are but a grain of sand;
and to some, just as annoying at times. As sand grains,
we might form a castle or a cat’s litter box, there is no
choice. As individuals we find all options open and choose
accordingly.
