The Earth in Perspective Organized by Joe Naumann, UMSL

We occupy a place somewhere on the Earth

Now, THIS is really fascinating It's rather dazzling to see it presented this way.

Jupiter Planetary Comparison

This certainly is enlightening.

Jupiter is about 1 pixel in size. Earth is invisible at this scale. Beyond our sun ........................................ It's a big universe.

Beyond our sun. It's a big universe Beyond our sun ........................................ It's a big universe. Antares is the 15th brightest star in the sky. It is more than 1000 light years away.

Now TRY to wrap your mind around this Now TRY to wrap your mind around this ... This is a Hubble Telescope Ultra Deep Field Infrared View of countless 'ENTIRE' Galaxies Billions of Light-Years Away.

This is a close up of one of the darkest regions of the previous photo.

Humbling, isn't it? Now How Big Are You? And how big are the things that upset you today? Keep life in perspective Choose to be happy, and don't sweat the small stuff!!!!!
