I am just stunned and amazed. Incredible! And the Pillars. OMG!

Thank you.

Breathtaking

I cast it to my TV in full screen and am marveling in the splendor of our solar system.

The Pillars are 47 trillion miles (was it high or across?). I have a little trouble imagining 47 trillion miles.

...You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space." -- Hitchhikers Guide

How come I can type that without looking it up? 😂

The only way I can remember quotes from books is if I write them down about 25 times, then they might stick. Kudos for your quote! On the other hand, I only heard Stephen Wright say "It's a small world...but I wouldn't want to paint it" once and I remembered it for ever. Go figure.

When the last black hole eats the next to the last black hole, a new big bang will take place.

Black holes will slowly dissipate and the entire universe goes dark in 10 to the 100th years, give or take. No more thermodynamic free energy or entropy.
