I love looking at these images from waaaaay out there. I already know I'm just a speck in the wind here on this rock, but it's still humbling to see all of those galaxies.

The earth is spining around the sun at 30mps, the sun around the galaxy at around 220 kmps and our galaxy is speeding through space at 1000kmps and now I know there are 5500 galaxies out there too!
