I feel small.
My brain literally cannot process this information.
I am a beautiful and unique snowflake?
^Yesā¦ yes you are Nemoide! Youāre beautiful and unique and the universe just doesnāt care, thatās all!
True story: I was (about) seven years old when the concept of infinity got lodged in my consciousnessā¦ I still have a clear snapshot memory of sitting on the can, idly thinking about it and getting sort of trapped in a tangible imagining of this reality. I started freaking out and crying for a while. Yeah, Iām a strange personā¦ but then I think most here already knew that.
Couldnāt help thinking of that as I watched that vid, I remember it almost exactly like that, being unable to find an end to this universeā¦
The vastness of our universe is both awe inspiring and humbling.
Thanks for sharing.
Ah, Heretic Agnostic, i feel with you, got the same issues as a kid once i started contemplating the concepts of both infinity and eternity.
I personally do not really believe in an infinite universe, i imagine the thing to be somehow wrapped around itself.
When you think about the possibility of multiple universesā¦try to think about the ideas of an infinite number of universes endlessly and exponentially growing in numbers. Or additional dimensions, i wonder how things would be like if you could somehow percieve time as an additional spacial dimensionā¦eh, i think my brain hurts and i feel small and lonely and i am afraidā¦
Know what the scariest thing about the Powers of 10 Film is?
It illustrates nicely how everything is emptiness
yepā¦ its big

If the human brain can not imagine the infinity, that doesnāt mean it is not real. Size, limits and borders are just the products of human perception, the virtual concepts.
