It is just so hard to wrap my head around the reality of this image. It is as though my brain hasn't evolved enough to fully accept how much organized matter is out there.
I'm content to accept the Big Bang as an hypothetical, but that falls apart when I try to coalesce all that matter into a singularity.
Intriguing stuff.
