I’m not terrified of space. It leaves me in awe and I find myself inspired by the power and significance of it. It’s the most beautiful art

6:04 "Twinkle, twinkle." No truer words to live by 😭

This channel keeps adding to my existential crisis, yet I keep coming back 🥲

The size of the universe crushes the soul, reduces us to meaningless cells in a lonely framework. It destroys the ego, smashes it so that it can't be mended, and for that, I'm grateful.

Great video. To quote Star Trek: “It's not safe out here. It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross. But it's not for the timid.”

Fear nothing. Infinity will reclaim everything. And from nothing, everything else will emerge again. and again.

Here before the thumbnail/title is changed

Its terrifying when imagining being alone in the middle of space with the infinity of nothingness surrounding me in all directions 😳 Thank you, relativity & the close proximity to others 🤗

sometimes i feel humans are terrifing , but this is on a another level

Strangely, I get the complete opposite feeling of Astrophobia; Astrophilia! I love space, even the “scary parts.” They’re not scary; it’s just a certain part of space that’s just there. We can’t avoid voids, we can’t stop them, they just keep going. And we keep going, living our lives, while black holes are expanding, new stars are bursting, and dying at the same time at speeds, and temperatures inconceivable to mankind. Mathematically impossible numbers that aren’t even invented yet, possibly. All of these larger than life facts just amaze me. It excites me, it makes me marvel at how incredibly beautiful and horrible this universe is; how expansive and ongoing it is. It doesn’t really make me feel “small,” per se; it actually reminds me how smart humanity can be, when we discover new things in space, and the gobs of information that has to be discovered in the future, by future generations of new and optimistic scientists. Space is both light and dark, cold and burning hot; amazing and horrible. It’s the literal interpretation of Yin and Yang.

“A true hell; twinkle twinkle” lmao

Scary things are beautiful in their own way.

'Tis the out-of-scope problem. Imagine an ant (conscious by fiction) trying to make sense of all the world that is beyond the hive, beyond the cultivatable, beyond relevance to it's life. The same goes for every entity confronted with reality that is just out of scope. We are not made to comprehend the cosmos, just the survival of the tribe. That's it. Once you feel like wrapping your mind around something larger (or way smaller for that matter), there is only abstraction and this task is a challenge for everyone, who has trouble in dislodging thought from being.

This video is what listening to Boards of Canada feels like to me. Wonder and dread at the same time.

Space is so terrifying because it’s a reminder of how small and insignificant we really are in the grand scheme of things. It’s the vast void on full display where you realize it’s staring right back at you, intensifying your existential dread.

I feel like if the cells in our bodies had a YouTube they would be blown away at the size of all the organs and bone relative to their size, yet they don’t realize there’s this whole universe outside of their home. So what if what we think of as otherworldly huge, is barely a speck compared to something else, and on and on and on.

This is exactly what I like to listen before going to sleep.

Space. You can fall in six directions instead of just one.

This actually excites me…because we have so much to learn !
