If it’s even bigger than our Milky Way, how can there NOT be human life there, too?

Maybe we were a prototype; ‘set it and forget it’ and see what happens? ;)

Regarding light-years:

Far smarter brains than mine have probably posted a light-year’s distance in miles, but I only recently stumbled on it. A light year is around 5.88 TRILLION miles. Way, way, way beyond my comprehension.

Although I will say in my defense that some of the family road trips when I was growing up SEEMED to be trillions of miles long . . . :-)
