yeah. so click.
this is a hubble telescope image:
the above image is about 250,000,000 light years away
5,865,696,000,000 miles = 1 light year
that = 1,466,424,000,000,000,000,000 miles away.
[and the closest star to earth --minus the sun-- is about 24,000,000,000,000 miles away]
makes me kind of dizzy.
light travels @ 700,000,000 miles an hour
there are 8765.91277 hours in a year
do the math
and 238,984,277+ years later, light from the above image will [theoretically] contact the earth.
my numbers are probably off
but you get the idea.
looking at the globe makes me feel small enough..
we are so tiny.
its amazing.
what's up there?
stars. heaven. E.T!
and who knows what else.
God is amazing.
