c isn't the speed of light, its the speed of causality. Just so happens that the max speed of light in a vacuum is the same as c.

Here is some propaganda for those interested.



As far as the OP goes, I found a really large version of the image.

It makes the rest of space look so small having our solar system so big and centered. Still, nice image though I'd like to see one to scale and preferably large in size so I can zoom in


This one is huge.

"Space," says the introduction to The Hitchhiker's Guide, "is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is." A-a-and so on. It also says that if you hold a lungful of air, you can survive in the total vacuum of space for about 30 seconds. But with space being really big and all, the chances of being picked up within that time are 22,079,460,347 to one against. Strangely, this is also the telephone number of an Islington flat where Arthur Dent went to a fancy dress party, and met a very nice young woman whom he totally blew it with. Though the planet Earth, the Islington flat and the telephone have all now been demolished, it is comforting to reflect that they are all, in some small way, commemorated by the fact that 29 seconds later, Arthur and Ford were, in fact, rescued.

Pay more attention to your own propaganda. At 8m40s he says c is the speed of light so saying c isn't the speed of light isn't even supported by your source.

Google Hubble deep field-thousands of galaxies captured in an area of the sky smaller than a thumbnail at arms length.

It's impossible to get a grip on the sheer size of the universe-numbers become irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

Hey Gypsy both you and me know i like stars i look up in the sky all the time to see shooting stars and such something magical about it.

1993TripRev: something about that picture in your avatar reminds me of something i can't put my finger on, like i knew a human that looked like that, ewww i know, i was not the only person who knew of this persons gruesomeness, i will quote a friend "look at him", the thing bread with another thing and had the most gruesome thing, must of been some kind of bad nightmare....i digress.

Love the stars though Gypsy love them.

Funny, heh, i am a big Lord of the Rings fan and Hobbit fan, pretty much a big Tolkien nerd loved his books and Peter Jackson's movies i thought were great.

I loved the Hobbit also, i thought the Lord of the Rings movies were just OK though.

Back on topic, i saw a bunch of shooting stars a few winters ago, they seem to happen more in the winter then in the summer.

That's probably because most meteor strikes happen near the plane of the ecliptic, and that plane is high up in the sky on winter nights.

That, and there is more darkness.

Yea the plane is way higher on winter nights, that is my guess in terms of what king saw also.

thank God you displayed this in it's original FLAT format.

(I get angry when people try to add third dimensions to things like planets.)
