I'm sure it's not a unique experience in any way, but thinking about space and the universe fills me with a weird and overwhelming... Dread? I don't know how to word it, but it feels terrifying thinking about the scale of it all, the numbers involved. So many galaxies, stars, planets. It feels like we have no hope whatsoever of ever seeing anything other than our little comfy nook we have here in our little solar system, and even then the scale involved is just incomprehensible.

I'm always speechless when I see these. Simply mind boggling
