Outer space is just, amazing. I'm sitting here listening to "Major Tom Coming Home" by Shiny toy guns, and honestly, just listening to a song makes me think.
Space is pretty huge in all standards isn't it...
We're living on one planet of 9 planets in one solar system among millions of solar systems in one galaxy among trillions of galaxies in one universe.
The scale of all this is just amazing. Thinking of all the weird space anomalies, like Quasars, Neutron stars, black holes, Nebulae, pulsars, huge (extremely large) stars, white dwarfs, all of these things just capture my imagination and make me constantly think and realize how insignificant we are, and how amazing the universe really is. I would DIE to see anything in outer space up close, to be able to get to a planet or anything else easily in a matter of years, to be able to experience anything on that scale up close.
I really hope this sort of thing manages to happen in my lifetime....

I LOVE THAT SONG!! I've thought of it before, blows my mind every time. Especially when you think that we're sitting on this planet pushing around electrons, which are so small we can't comprehend that either. o.0
And I would totally kill for the opportunity just to go to space, let alone go to mars.
Vacuum tube costs would plummet if we put a factory on the moon.
