It is a nice video indeed and I imagine a tiny hassata flying his tiny space ship from one galaxy to another.

I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.

The answer is no. I’m fantasising about a tiny space suit, made with the help of nanotechnology and NASATA resources, which is capable of withstanding particle collisions.

Have fun trying to make one that stops cosmic rays :)

I think its time for some poesy:

The Universe

 

© Sylvia Stults

 

 

Sliding down the milky way as the harvest moon lights the way

This starts my journey through the galaxy

My first stop, Gould's Belt, at 20 degrees.

 

It was Orion I first met there, with sword in hand without a fear

While Scorpio and Carina sat at the atmospheric shore

Discussing their next voyage, one I wanted to explore

 

I mentioned I was on a quest to see what the Universe holds

When Carina looked at Scorpio and said, It needs to be shown.�

At first I wondered what he meant, for it made no sense to me

But then Carina turned and said, Would you like to join me at sea?�

 

Upon the ship of Argo with Vela as the sail

Carina keeled through the quake cut by Cetus the giant whale

When far off in the distance and much to my surprise

Was Delphinus the Dolphin signaling everything was alright

 

I pulled out my compass and noticed an awful flaw

When Carina said there is no East or West, my friend,

We go by Kepler's Law

 

So with each planetary motion

My light show soon began, with Jupiter, then Saturn

With rings of glistening bands

 

All the planets took their turn in showing off their luster

When all of a sudden, off to the side, particles started to cluster

Hues of greens, yellows, reds, and blues all began to mingle

Creating such a magnificent site my skin started to tingle

 

This is a nebula, said Carina This is the core.

This is the birthplace of the planets galore

Each planet started with just one spark, searing in it's colors

The nebula makes each color their own all different then the others.

 

But what about that planet there?� I said with a defying glare,

That planets colors are all dim and black

With ugly fumes of soot and ash.

 

Carina suddenly lost her braggadocios tone

And with sadness in her eyes

She said, That is what you call home.

 

At one time it was I, Carina, that would sit throughout the night

With hopes that I may catch one glimpse of your planet's awesome site

Your blues, which you call oceans, the greens, which you call grass,

the pinks and yellows of your skies sparkled like effervescent glass

 

The music that filled the air lulled us to sleep from birds I hear

What are birds? I do not know, other then

Colorful creatures with musical souls

 

Then gradually your planet started to dim

A thick black dust choked life from within.

No longer do we hear the songbirds sing

What a horrible lost, What a horrible thing

 

No longer do the song birds sing

No longer do the song birds sing

;)

if this is not exactly your thing/or you are not in the right mood ...

Some scientists suspect the existence of Weakly Interactive Massive Particles and they call them Wimps.

Well I suspect that they can be found on the same evolutionary brunch as homo erectus. Bam!

I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.

:thumbup:A amazing flash "game" that show you how small or big our known world is.

I lost myself in it last night....

 

It's very entertaining to read the comments - and you learn also a lot!

Bohr model depictions of atoms make baby Jesus cry. :D

Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

Come let's eat grandpa!

Use punctuation, save lives!

Reminds me of The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy books where there is a capital punishment involving being strapped in a chair with a device that shows you literally 100% of the universe in all its vastness, accompanied by a small arrow saying "YOU ARE HERE". The brain would then shut down simply because of the feeling of insignificance.

 

Didn't work on Zaphod though, all the experience told him was how awesome he is.
