Very cool. I am always fascinated with this sort of thing. I am going to look for it tonight. It's hard to imagine something that large.

I just find it totally amazing that there is this whole world out there that we know nothing about. Well, I guess scientists know something, but it's so massive that we haven't even begun to scratch the surface of understanding it all. I'm not sure man ever will either.

If you can take photos if you can see it well. I'd love to see them! I hope I don't forget to check it out tonight. I think the sky is supposed to be clear.

It is quite amazing to me it's a bit like when you are flying over a huge city and you realize we are just specks really

I will try a photo - not sure it will work out

Here are some photos

Those are cool. Yes, you described it perfectly. We are but specks in this world. We're such a small part of a much larger thing.

That's me as well ...I used to always imagine what it would be like to be alone in a space capsule and just keep flying outward thru space for something like 50 years (or for 50 thousand lightyears that only feels like 50 years lol)...I imagine there would be sights so beautiful out there that it would blow our minds.

I was working on a comet thread too.

That thing looks pretty, but it would fuck you UP!
