What are your thoughts after this video?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8CgDGhYKe8

I really want to hear true and honest opinions... I feel so small, and yet, amazed because of just how big Canis Majoris is. It's absolutely head exploding to think of something so large.

    Those stars are really huge!

    However, there are things out there much larger.

    Globular clusters, galaxies, clusters of galaxies, superclusters of galaxies, and the largest thing discovered so far besides the Universe itself: the Sloan Great Wall.

    1)Makes me want to get better at math and physics.

    2)Makes me want to take up cosmology.

    3)Reminds me that almost all things are pointless on earth except for the disciplines above.

    PS: shout out to Biology and chemistry aswell.

    Amazing, but then your size compared to a bacteria is amazing to the bacteria.
