The Universe

Have you ever really thought what the universe is? If you think about it its mind boggling because it never ends it is something that well never be able to figure out for all we know the solar system is a play ground on another planet a planet as big as the solar system and the space between is is the space between two grains of sand. What on our planet is millionth of an inch…………. I am not sure it doesn’t make any sense to me what so ever we have no idea what the universe actually is. For all we know we make be a microsopice organism on a planet…. And maybe there are organisms on this grain of sand as smart as we are and we don’t know about them maybe they wonder if there is more like in there solar system or “playground” as we wonder. Well wanted to get that off my chest for some time now please fell free to lave any comments if you want and say what your fellings about this are.

Re: The Universe

Ya, its wierd all right. We all worry about our problems so much in life on this planet, and yet when you look up at the stars you feel so utterly insignificant. Who knows if the universe has an end? It is really hard to grasp that something thats so huge, yet still tangible can have no end. The theory that your describing reminds me of the end of the first Men in Black! Its possible (although a little far fetched) to image that our entire universe is a building block or a smaller piece of something even bigger. I guess that this is like what an ant or something would feel like when he is surrounded by things so much bigger than he is. So who is to say that we are the final layer? Gets you thinking though......

Re: The Universe

Its mind boggling. Just thinking about how Big the planet Jupiter is compared to Earth is crazy. To think that the sun is millions times bigger than Jupiter is crazy. Theres stars out there millions times bigger than the sun. And there are trillions and trillions of stars. Its so crazy. When I die one of the first things I wanna know is what is out there and how did it all start.

Re: The Universe

the sun is not a million times bigger than jupiter, think of it in these terms, if the earth is the size of the pupil of your eye, jupiter is the size of your head, and the sun is the size of your body from head to toe. the largest known star, betelguese, is the size of the eiffel tower.
