"The size and age of the Cosmos are beyond ordinary human understanding. Lost somewhere between immensity and eternity is our tiny planetary home."
— Carl Sagan

The vastness of the universe as it continues to expand while nebulae continue to fill the nightsky with new stars that glitter in the night sky like diamonds are the muse for poets, composers and observers - like myself - who watch in wonder.

@wonderofscience I have an anxiety disorder, and thinking about the vastness of space calms me down. Works every time.
@wonderofscience God made all that and still found time to get mad if you let gay kids not be bullied in school, amazing when you think bout it
