As science uncovers the structure of the universe, the reality of the vastness of space is more fantastic than anything the human mind could have imagined. These are the mind stretching thoughts we think looking into a starry night sky, or laying snug in our beds at night. One hundred billion stars in our galaxy. Give the raw unconnected matter of the universe 15 billion years to evolve and what you see is what you get. 15 billion years after the big bang, and WE exist.
All places are equally the center.
I like to think that we are each a center of the universe. I am the center of the universe. I started making this model to show my son the reality of the size of the solar system. Sharing it with our community has happily enriched both our lives in unforeseeable ways.
