Thanks, Blue
That was cool to watch (especially the goofball-boogie )..... only, I get absorbed and feel like I'm traveling out there..... and I don't want to come back here.....
Thanks for putting up something to tweak my Sense of Wonder

Loved it, BR. It was fascinating and mind boggling at the same time. All those galaxies.

I used to think that earth was the only planet in the solar system with life. But as of later years after the hubble photos were released with news of the discoveries, I now think that with all those galaxies there is probably one planet similiar to earth in each galaxy with life.

I think that light years away there are probably people just like us searching the solar system and awed by the vastness of it, trying to figure it all out and wondering if they are the only life form in all that vastness.

Just the beauty of the solar system from pictures we have of it now is just so awesome that words cannot describe the feelings I get looking at those pictures.
