At 100% image size my 24” monitor shows about 2% of the full picture area (appr. 1/7 vertical and 1/7 horizontal; 1/7 x 1/7 = 1/49 = appr. 2%, right?).

I think I need a bigger monitor.

There are a heck of a lot of stars out there. One estimate (said to be credible) I saw some time ago stated that there are about as many stars in the universe as grains of sand on all of Earth’s beaches...

Lol, you have to get used to scrolling; I don’t think there is a monitor that has that many pixels.

One thing about the sand analogy is they aren’t positive about how big the universe really is. There is still the possibility that it is infinitely large.
