These 209 seconds upside your mind! Your perception of the world will never be the same again ...

When you watch this video, you begin to understand that everything that happens to you in life - such a small thing, and even humanity - a grain of sand compared to the size of the solar system, galaxy and the whole universe. This understanding is so breathtaking that you begin to look differently at the world around.

We live on the planet Earth. The video indicated by our place in the Solar System (not to scale). The distance between the Earth and the Moon, it would seem, it is not so great, but ... within this distance you can put all the planets of our Solar System. This 4, 392 km or 2 729 miles will be not busy.

If North America was at Jupiter, it would occupy the same space as a small patch of green that we see in the video. Then, we propose to compare the size of Earth and Saturn. Striking. But what happens if you take the sun?

Next we see a picture of the Earth from the Moon. Then - another view of the Earth, but on Mars. Little difficult-point - it land. At a distance of 4 billion miles.

Well, now we face the earth compared to the sun. Terrifying, right? But there are plenty of stars and our sun. Arcturus to 16 000 times greater than the sun. Alpha Scorpii A. 690 million times, and star in the constellation Canis Major 2.9 billion times larger than our sun. At this scale, the sun can barely see.

It's crazy, but it's nothing compared to the size of our galaxy. So, the width of the Sun - 1, 400, 000 kilometers. Many, right? But the size of our Milky Way galaxy has a diameter of about 100 000 light-years.

Milky Way galaxy is enormous. On the video, we offer to evaluate our location in it, and a small circle of stars that fall into our field of vision.

But even our galaxy - baby, compared to some others. Take a look at Aisi 1011, its width - 6, 000, 000 light-years. Just imagine for a moment how many there may be.

But let's think beyond!

The following picture was taken with the Hubble Space Telescope. It shows thousands of galaxies, each containing billions of stars. And orbiting each star has its own planet. And all of this can be seen in a small patch of sky.

So if you will be sad, remember that our Land - a real cozy house, and all the people on it - the neighbors. And all your worries - a trifle compared with the gigantic universe.
