Surely you're not suggesting that I should stop worrying about whether the Celtics are gonna wind up with the #1 draft pick in the next NBA draft, are you?
Tell me it isn't so!

Next you'll expect me to make peace with the hated Lakers.

Contemplating space for too long has always been a depressing venture for me.

At the risk of making a simple thread more serious, why?

Well, I want the Warriors to end up with the last pick of the draft.

Sounds like a Warriors fan to me.
I'm happy for you guys to win this year if we get the #1 draft pick.

This is a shot from 2014, taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. This image, which captured a tiny section of space, contains over 10,000 galaxies photographed in ultraviolet, showing off the color array found in deep space:

Now let me really boggle your minds!



The Earth rotates at ~1,040 mph (1,673 kph).

Earth flies around the Sun at a slow ~66,000 mph (107,000 kph), and completes the orbit in 1 year.

Our solar system travels around our spiral galaxy, the Milky Way, at a speed of ~515,000 mph (828,000 kph). We are on one of the spiral arms. It takes our solar system around 230,000,000 years to make a complete circle around our galaxy.

Our galaxy is trucking through space at an astonishing ~134,000,000 mph (215,652,096 kph) and has been doing so for billions of years!

For those keeping score, on Earth we rotate within a rotation, within a rotation, within a rotation!
