Question: What is your favourite thing about space and why?

Paul Higgins answered on 21 Nov 2012:

My favorite thing is that there is so much going on out there. We are so tiny and insignificant compared to space. When I think about space it really puts things in perspective. Humans are this tiny speck, in a tiny solar system, orbiting an average star toward the outer part of the milky way galaxy… and there are millions of other galaxies we can see out there.
