It can be hard to wrap your head around just how vast space is…and how tiny the planet that we call home is…
So we thought it would be a good idea to show you some photos that illustrate just how amazingly tiny we are.
Take a look at these pics and take some time to look up at the sky and ponder our existence once in a while, it’s truly incredible!
1. Just to put things in perspective.
END TO END, people.
2. That’s how big Jupiter is.

I guess you could say that it’s “supermassive.”

Kind of hard to believe, isn’t it?
8. Our entire solar system next to the size of our Milky Way galaxy.
Try to wrap your head around that…
