What is reallt mind boggling is the sheer scale of the solar system, never mind our galaxy and other galaxys.

The Thousand Yard Model of the Universe

Every time i think I've got my mind around the awesome massiveness of the universe someone just shows me the Hubble Ultra deep field image and it fries my brain, I just cannot comprehend the numbers, speeds and distances. I've often sat and stared at the DFI for hours trying to understand that this image containing 3500 galaxies and over a trillion stars was taken by just pointing the Hubble at a pinhead sized spec of space than had no known galaxies in it, and the camera was left on for a week to capture every last photon of light from this tiny spec of empty space................
