    2.5 million light years away, 25 species could have evolved, reached a technical zenith, and died out in the time it took a photon to travel to us. Even at light speed it would take 2.5 million years to get there and it is the closest galaxy. Wow

      I love it when it gets people like that. It’s mind-blowing on another level. Wow indeed.

      Oops at the speed of light it wouldn't take the travelers 2.5 million but still a very long time.

      well, according to what 'scientists' have been told to tell us, yes! We will never know its distance for sure!

      There are actually other smaller galaxies closer to use. And small is also colliding with us right now. Right?

      @@whitekingcat5118 I'll do some reading about that - but 3 vs 4 light years is the ball park regardless and still way beyond our technical capability. I think they talk about Alpha Centauri because it has an earth like planet. Smaller ones tend not to be viable for life.

    Was in my back garden last night with a pair of pretty decent binoculars. Middle of the city full of light. Literally found it in seconds. A wisp of oval light....amazing

    Tull din bob sais :) I'm from Penarth but I was exiled to Australia for indiscretions. The sky is great down here, as someone mentions the Magellanic clouds are amazing! One of the most curious things is that the moon appears upside down. There's no face to be seen even if you stand on your head, I tried.

    I gather you only see the skies of the northern hemisphere, right? I’m just a curious amateur. I live in the Southern Hemisphere, Rio de Janeiro. I see with the naked eye, late at night near a rock hill the beautiful Southern cross. Around 8pm I see Venus, Mars and the 3 Mary’s.

      Yes, unfortunately, we are stuck in the North and don't get to see some of the wondrous objects you have! Would love to see the Magellanic clouds and the Milky Way from the southern hemisphere.

      Reincarnation is a missconcept.. there is no such thing..we are biological machines,we just stop working..all the traits are passed down through arn and dna to the kids but you wont be sentient again.you only live once and u may choose to waste your life for noyhing or try to build up for next generation. This is limited by social boundries such as religion,social caste and intelligence capability.

      You aren’t having any other incarnation. You are one copy from a reproductive cycle going back millions of years. You’re like one link in a chain of billions. Your one consciousness will die with you.
