Where Are We?

ok.. i didn't want to post this in the astro/cos topic, cuz they'd prolly laugh at me.....

if we live on earth
and earth is in our solar system
and our solar system is floating out on space.
where is space?

i was thinking about it one day.... and.... i was thinking about that men in black movie... and about the cat who had the necklace thing with little planets inside of it, and how small it was... what if we are tiny little creatures.......... and our solar system fits in the palm of a reegular persons hand... bt it is so big to us wed never know..... what if we finally had the technology to find the "end of the universe"... then what? do we just hit the glass wall? press our nose against it? just looking for a response.

Relative to our home city, we are tiny little creatures.
Relative to our home continent, we are tiny little creatures.
Relative to our planet, we are tiny little creatures.
Relative to our solar system, we are tiny little creatures.
Relative to our galaxy, we are tiny little creatures.
Relative to our universe, we are tiny little creatures.

Viewing it with honest perspective, you should gasp in awe at how small we truly are and at how truly large is the universe. The only thing we own which might compare is our imagination's ability to hold and see it within the human mind--your miniture universe in a bobble, I think.

If you walk within your imagination, then yes, there you be.

This is where your galactic hometown is at.

 

Not even visible by the biggest telescope, if you see it really that way.
Solarsysem is very little.
So is our Planet, called Earth.
On that Planet Earth we are little points, very, very, very little.
So, now I wonder.
In this whole big, great, enormous Universe we are nothing more then a very, very, very, little dot or maybe not even that.

Compared to the universe you are small, but compared to bacteria you are a universe yourself.

Well, I don't know much about the universe, but I heard it's getting bigger and it has a form, so it has to be inside something else. Perhaps our whole universe is a bubble in the stomach of some odd super-beeing...

You really make it very tasteful, in my imagination.
Be glad you don't have my imagination...

General Science & Technology!? Is that forum starving for threads?

 

I guess I prefer to be the bacteria then, in this paticular case.

Bacterias are very scientific Bowser, really.
Ever been in a test lab? Man, you don't want to be a bacteria then.
Haha.

Once we work out how large the universe is, we can work out how well our scientific notation works, and then we will know where we are.

 

Where are we? I always thought we were on Earth, 93 million miles from the sun, in a galaxy that exists among other galaxies, in a universe who, no one, really knows how large or old or how it's composed.

Where are we? What was I talking about? Notice I posted this without reading any replies, just going on the titile.

HELLO I'M HERE!

 

AND MY NAME IS CONGRATULATIONS!!

 

Congratiulations, Congratiulations with finding the Sci forums.
Good choice, nice forums.

For as far as where we are...
At this moment I am sitting behind my computer in my living room in the Netherlands.
My body is behind the computer and my mind is at Sci forums.
That is where I am, now.
But it changes, the place where I am.
Bye, have fun and good discussions here at Sci forums.
