How big is it?
Very big, If i was to quantify its bigness I'd be doing it a disservice! Bigly big, the vastly big bigness of the universe.

Apparently a cool dude has traveled around the globe and taken 37000 photos of the night sky, combined them into a 360° panorama. Then to top it off, uploaded it to the internet.

Feel free to share videos/images/interviews of other space stuff. Or you can just sit there with your jaw on the floor like you should after seeing that ^

(Try not to overdo the p2 space meme, It's really not that great)

Yep, it looks quite vast, easy to get lost. I think I'll stay on earth after all

As light pollution continues to spread in America, these western states contain some of the last havens of true darkness, a shade few of us are any longer familiar with in which the Milky Way alone can cast a soft shadow. This darkness was crucial because even the slightest amount of light pollution could overpower faint starlight and haze the exposures.

That reminds me of when I went into a copper-mine and they turned off the lights and it was dark...

You'd think nasa would have a better website than just a white background and that basic font/links.

I'm assuming they don't have the budget or priority to hire a proper web designer.
