I suppose to an ant the earth is infinite and can’t possibly imagine how big it actually is…Sort of like space to us.
I think size is relative and we don’t realise how small and insignificant we are, but the World Wide Web and the Aeroplane makes it seem so much smaller than it actually is.
I started to get an inkling while on a cruise once.
we left Barbados and sailed for eight days back to Southampton. During that time we didn’t see another ship or any sign of land. And that journey was only a very small portion of the world. It puts stuff into perspective.

I have convincing proof of that in the short run.
In the long run, we are chasing the theories that would suggest this (humanity likes happy endings and second chances). Why a recycling or multi-universe is possible is that the universe is, in subatomically imperfect - or statistically possible to be in more than one place or state at the same time.
You are an optimist and so am I, Zac. The probability of life in the universe (if we believe we are not a statistically extremely unlikely Boltzmann’s brain) is 100%, and once it takes off - WOW! After all, there are something like 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 organisms, including bacteria, on Earth right now.

"So remember, when you’re feeling very small and insecure
How amazingly unlikely is your birth
And pray that there’s intelligent life somewhere out in space
'Cause it’s bugger all down here on Earth "

It all goes back to quotes of Einstein of 110 years ago. JHC.
So, is that an antique? It’s half of the existence of The USA Constitution.
I just read today that science believes we live with in a bouncy bunch of
nearby wormholes. All a line of total B?>S?
Can you actually buy the Phrase, “Your physical self’s gonna exist after a 20x light year instant teleportation?”
Show me one thing that humans have developed that isn’t concluding a lot of energy connected, ever. Thinking of Roman aqueducts, water running after building aqueducts. See? Barges with sails, trains with steam power, lightbulbs, Microwaves and AC. 150,000 Jet aircraft flying a day, Space X?
What is wrong with the complete abandonment of conserving energy, here, now, forever?
Our generations can get a chance to observe calamity at its best show!
Do I believe harder calamities are in the near future? Using huge energy consumptions have a terrible consequence. More hurricanes, Tornadoes Electrical storms, and Volcano / Earthquakes. A gonna be a normal is a thought! Time can tell a truth story mostly!
We will answer Mother’s anger most definitely via its energy also. Energy just changes form!
Maybe the more we use the more the environments gonna slam back in our descendant’s face!
We had a wiener roast via outside fire yesterday, the gentle breeze from the northwest.
The fire got hot, the flames rose a couple feet, and the breeze began to circle the firepit.
Space time has absolutely nothing to do with how humans will live a normal life.
Our chance at life has been set.
Anywhere with an oxygen atmosphere will have life is not a probability but a fact.
That doesn’t set an exact % on free Oxygen in atmosphere isn’t imperative.
Just that Life will occur / it can happen.
Most likely Ai has it already.
NASA is posting images and updates live on the NASA site today:
GMT 8:00 p.m.
Today Nasa said it started radioing us. … 
… I don’t believe em.

When one starts getting headaches it’s too bright!
This most likely has huge implications for our decedents futures.

I’m more with "if it’s not broken, fix it until it is "
The world is changing all the time, but it’s only until recently that we have had the technology to monitor it.
200-300,000 years of Humans on earth, 50 years of technology, this generation has been busy

Yep, I think we are coming to the end of technological progress Spitty, we are about to enter the phase of regression.
More and more people are losing the skills that brought us here because of too many distractions.
This will most likely be renamed the ‘Craziest part’ of existence.
Remember the wooden box hanging on the wall, the crank and party line,
The farmer ladies talking all day long. The Operator and her plugs.
Now its, "Hold the line until a live Hu-mon-associate responds.’ (don’t put me on hold)
