Goodness. I know the Universe is big but that puts in in perspective! Imagine putting the galaxy's in there!

(makes you wonder where it all comes from

I love the universe. I wish I could boldly go where no man has gone before.

Here's something interesting I can add (because I want to do Astrophysics),
There are more then a billion stars in our galaxy...and there are more then 100 billion galaxies in our known universe...how many stars are there?

Earths not there because it'd be smaller then a pin-head dot.

Also here is a picture in relation to our sun and our galaxy http://www.public.iastate.edu/~astro/seminars/images/Milky_Way_galaxy_sun05.jpg

And this is one tiny section of the night sky http://regmedia.co.uk/2006/09/25/lots_of_galaxies.jpg every light source is from a galaxy as big as ours.

HOLY CRAP...

Dat was AMAZING. I can't believe how tiny we are in the universe! And who knows if this is the only one? XD

I thought you knew what Black Holes were? :lol:

I got the pic of the Black Hole from the Google image section.

Well it's black, and it might be a hole... :lol:

But as I said it's impossible to try to draw a black hole, that's why I couldn't recognise it (I've seen it in so many different ways!), and I prefer to represent it with a time-space singolarity.
Here's another image that shows how big known universe is (click to see the bigger image):

Thats a cool image

I guess space is even bigger if you believe theories stating that there are other universe's. I have my own theory which in 4 years is going to be my university thesis

Also out of interest there are also white holes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_hole
