Earlier this month, NASA released a gigantic, incredibly sharp photo of the Andromeda Galaxy, taken by the Hubble space telescope. (NASA points out the image is so big that to display it at full resolution, you'd need 600 HD TVs). The vastness of our universe is beyond words.

I'm amazed at the colors. Are those gas clouds? So many questions.

Thank you for the reminder.
If only the climate alarmist were so perceptive as to see how insignificant man is in the face of nature and the universe.

We are but tiny things resident on a floating ball of mud drifting in the vastness of space.

How rare is life.

"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." - Hamlet

:idea:
Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.
