you're just a tiny speck

 

@Tim Urban


the last stars will die out 120 trillion years from now
followed by 10^106 years of just black-holes

condense that - its like universe - life - 1 secs of stars
and then followed by
a billion, billion, billion, billion, billion,billion years
of just black holes

stars are basically immediate after-effects of Big-bang
1 second of the sizzle of brightness
before settling into eternal darkness
we live in that one bright second!

@KunalShah:

After repeated attempts by NASA to make us believe we are insignificant, most people retain the ability to think they’re the centre of the universe.
