What fascinates me the most is that wherever you look, you see a star... But if you would sit in a space craft and fly into any direction, you would fly millions of light years in a straight line not hitting any obstacle... It's mind shattering how vast the space between the stars actually is...

I still so vividly remember the time I was on a beach...where there were zero buildings or lights for miles. And then looking up....it was almost terrifying. You can SEE with your own eyes the freaking Milky Way. I was astonished by how many stars I could see. It was like the sky was sprayed with powdered sugar. And the actual structure of the Milky Way was easily visible. I could see how it was an ellipse viewed side-on...and I could see hundreds of dust and gas clouds occluding spots all over the place. And I could see the galactic center and how much brighter it was. It was easily one of the most breathtaking things I've ever witnessed. I actually was lucky enough to see the total solar eclipse that crossed America a few years ago. That was just incredible. BUT....to be perfectly honest, it paled in comparison to seeing the Milky Way in THAT detail. And I could look at it for hours....which I did.

For you wondering what the guy in the background is saying: Astronomer Carl Sagan: The spacecraft was a long way from home. I thought it would be a good idea, just after Saturn, to have them take one last glance homeward. From Saturn, the Earth would appear too small for Voyager to make out any detail. Our planet would be just a point of light, a lonely pixel hardly distinguishable from the other points of light Voyager would see: nearby planets, far off suns. But precisely because of the obscurity of our world thus revealed, such a picture might be worth having. So, here they are: a mosaic of squares laid down on top of the planets in a background smattering of more distant stars. Because of the reflection of sunlight off the spacecraft, the Earth seems to be sitting in a beam of light, as if there were some special significance to this small world; but it's just an accident of geometry and optics. There is no sign of humans in this picture: not our reworking of the Earth's surface; not our machines; not ourselves. From this vantage point, our obsession with nationalisms is nowhere in evidence. We are too small. On the scale of worlds, humans are inconsequential: a thin film of life on an obscure and solitary lump of rock and metal.

The original video sent me, this remastered version sent me even further. My breath has been taken yet again. Thank you so much! I also love your sentiments in the description. As a life-long amateur astronomer, those feelings have matched my own for many years now. Infinitesimal beings we may be, but we are the stuff of the universe made manifest in order to experience and learn about itself. As Einstein once put it, "A physicist is an atom's way of learning about atoms". We are not IN the universe. We ARE the universe, incarnate. Here's another quote I like, from Carl Sagan's novel, _Contact:_ "For small creatures such as we, the vastness is bearable only through love".

Every one of those stars is about 5 to 10 light YEARS apart. Absolutely mind boggling..

I think the stars in a way do care about you, you are their children, in this vast evolving cosmos, you are the children of the stars and the only ones (that we know of) that can comprehend with mind and heart what it means when you look back at the cosmos, we are star dust evolved into beings that can comprehend what created us and look back upon it in wonder and awe.

Imagine all the creatures - from all the worlds in every corner - spread out in a cold dark macrocosm universe - that never knew the others existed - some from so long ago that time can't remember them - and others ahead in a time not yet counted - while those that exist now - are long dead and don't know it and only hallow echos across the expanse tease us that they were once here - as we will one day too - makes me weep in joyous sorrow for there is no yesterday or tomorrow, there is only the microcosm of my NOW!

It's called a phantasm.

I knew there were many stars in the galaxy... but so MUCH! Moreover, as I understand it, the large stars that are visible on Andromeda are not its stars, but ours, which are located in our galaxy and are only projected on Andromeda... Now the Milky Way is almost nowhere to be seen, the whole sky is illuminated. But I remember as a child, in the village, in August, on a cloudless and moonless night, we lay on a hay-pile and it seemed that the Milky Way could be touched by hand. He loomed over us. How bright and literally tangible it was. Now you can find such pictures, but I remember it from my childhood. I know that with the naked eye we see a very small region of stars "near" us... this is a region-a point on the Milky Way... I know that we don't see many stars near us, because their glow is very faint. I know Andromeda is much bigger than the Milky Way, but to have SO MANY stars!!!! I'm in shock! So many visible stars! And how many more of those whose glow is too weak! ... then only obscene words expressing admiration for the greatness of the Cosmos! ))))))

Thinking of how many civilizations inhabit all the possible star systems in this galaxy definitely can make an impact on you, and be very emotional experience.

I think this really puts into perspective just how big space is. You can know the numbers and the science but you can never really grasp the vastness of space without a visual. This is one of the best visuals of the scale of space out there.

This makes me cry, every time I watch it.

Awe-inspiring. Seeing such detail in something 2.5 million light years away. Frightening and beautiful.

Just searched this up after a few years and glad to see an updated version.

Now think about that: Every Bright spot you see there is a Star like our sun which is most likely orbited by many Planets that are not visible in the Picture since they dont emit light. So you can basically Multiply the Numer of Spots you see there and get the number of Celestial Bodies in that Galaxy. Also i bet if you would pause the video at any point and would try to manually count all stars you see in that frame you would take more than a day to do so.
