We are so very small, and our Earth so very precious.  Kind of puts our first world problems into perspective.

I agree we are very small. I am not sure if we are as "precious" as most like to believe. I have read where scienctists have said there are billions of earth like planets discovered so far but we have no way to detect if they have life or not due to our current technology.

Science is amazing. It has taught me to look outside of the bubble and changed my thinking. Now i search for more answers.

 

Very good video Catt.

Reminds me of the Hitchhiker's guide Total Perspective Vortex.
