    The first time I heard how massive our Milky Way Galaxy was, it hurt my mind. Then trying to imagine the rest of the known universe just blew it. That was over 25 years ago, with Carl Sagan's Cosmos. Now we have discovered it is much bigger, and although it is hard to conceptualize, it doesn't blow my circuits anymore. Amazing, and astounding, but within my realm of understanding. Scientists like this help tremendously by explaining things so they can be understood.

    Howdy hi hi,
    I think the larger wonder is that we can look up and know the these bits of light are stars, and galaxies. That we have measured, with some degree of accuracy the distance to these objects. And that we can know for certain that we are seeing light emitted billions of years ago.
    That we have not the capacity to properly conceptualize the size of it all beyond numbers that befuddle our imagination. Is, I think, a sign that we are truly sentient and aware of what is around us on this world, in this star system, in this galaxy, and to some small extent. The universe around it.

Great presentation though, Prof. Cox! Remember folks, geology rocks, but geography is where it's at! (Give it a minute, it'll come to ya!) Yup, I'm being a smart @$$ again! Good day, everyone!

    You know, I have been on this earth now for 67 years. All my life, I have been taught that the universe is 13.8 billion years old, and that is what I have believed to be true. But you blew that out of the water when you told me that the light that reaches us is 13.8 billion years old, not the universe. That put everything into a new perspective. It means we have no idea how old the universe is, nor its size.

Time is space and space time. Outside these creations we are eternal and expansive. All things are one and closer than you can fathom.

    Difficult but after a few decades practice I realized that there are multiple scales of big: so small you can’t see (microscopic & Plank Scale), human, planetary, galaxial, and dark matter distances (whatever they are). Can I visualize them the same way I remember how to tie my shoes? No. But enough that I reject the term insignificant as it applies to humans. Difficult is intuitive knowledge of the time light takes to go some of these distances. Go Brian!

    That's exactly why LIFE elsewhere is guaranteed. Everything is a numbers game. People that don't agree with this are not educated enough about science enough to grasp it properly. It is a fact based on the huge numbers. Life will exist where the conditions for it allow it to exist. (Including, temperature, water and other factors.) There is life more advanced, less advanced, and equal to human beings. The huge numbers allow for the chance for any and all of it. It's simply spaced far apart. Advanced beings can no doubt travel faster and farther. Making it to Earth.
