I used to be in my very early youth an enthusiastic amateur astronomer. Once I understood the vastness of space I was very depressed and so very much disappointed. I realized then that I would never be able to actually go and see these distant places. I have hope, it ain’t going to happen in my lifetime, that one day travel to these distant places can be realized. I have faith humanity isn’t going to be stuck on our blue-green orb forever.

It did the exact opposite for me. The seemingly limitless and infinite distances and size of objects such as galaxies, *never* cease to amaze me.

It seems like we’re not able to comprehend the grand plan. Thinking of infinity makes my brain melt. Just like tcp/ip does.
