About Tiny Red Dots

The Universe is a big place. Even that is an understatement.

The Universe is vast. It has far more reach than Real Madrid's marketing arm. Infinitely more reach. It is so big, nobody knows where it ends.

The sad thing is, humans who dwell the planet Earth prefer to retreat into small, compartmentalized areas they call 'countries'. Earth, in itself is a small-ass planet. Against the vastness of Space, Earth is an invisible dot on an invisible dot, our galaxy. Individual persons on Earth, can you imagine it, are invisible dots on an invisible dot on an invisible dot on the entire Universe. Sadly, most people prefer to leave the exploration to geeks in NASA, and stay in their houses.

I wish there'd be a day where we are free to roam Earth. No political inclination, expired passports or any form of distinction or prejudice to bar us from walking the land that was rightfully ours. Maybe if we weren't prevented from exploring the planet we live on, we'd go further in our exploration of what's outside Earth.

Buncha old homo sapiens trying to divide themselves, what are they playing at?
