This is the type of stuff that makes me realize just how insignificant we really are!
You think if we could keep on zooming that we'd see galaxies again.
Ahh...my head hurts.

There's an old educational movie called "The Powers of Ten" that's probably very similar to this (I'm at work, so I can't see it). It's very cool.
"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." - PJ O'Rourke

Wow.
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.


Full of the heavens and time.
