So I learned Polaris (the North Star) is 434 light years from Earth. That means that if you find it and see it, you are receiving light from a star that it emitted in the year 1581.

And bear in mind that c (the speed of light) is 186,000 miles per second. And that a light year is just shy of 6 trillion miles.

 

So the light coming from Polaris traveled about 2.5 quadrillion miles to get to you.

 

That distance goes around the planet only about 106 billion times. :lol:

 

Space is big.

I'm not into shipping but I find it impossible to see Lyra and Bob Bon as anything except a couple. They're perfect together!

Then consider that some of the stars we can see are tens of millions of light years away. If an alien on one of the stars is looking through a hyper powerful telescope right now, he's looking at dinosaurs!

Friendship isn't always easy. But it's definitely worth fighting for.

Maybe that's why aliens aren't talking to us. They think we're all dinosaurs! :o

 

You know. I never really thought of that.

I wonder...

 

If you went to the very edge of the universe and looked back at the centre, would you see the Big Bang?
