I have just now seen this site. It may be old news for some, but it really blew my mind.
Ever wondered just how small we really are?
Have a look at this link
And just to think...Antares isn't even the biggest one that has been found.
There was a thread a while back I remember seeing about VW Canis Majoris, or VV Cephei...I can't remember which one is the larger. The link in the
thread takes ou to a Youtube video...with really hypnotic music, it's actually kinda cool
Yes, I understand how small we are, but if you can think of the distances then you will be taken aback, just an example, if the sun was represented a
beach ball at some pointon the earth, then pluto would be the size of a grain 17 miles away.
This is just additional informationon how huge the universe is.
Hi VIKING . That's a cool site and really puts things into perspective. Makes earth seem so tiny and somehow insignificant, doesn't it?
Amazing! Thanks for posting that.
