  1. I knew our planet, the earth, is one of the solar system, and it’s also one of the Milky Way. However, the video let me reconfirm how tiny the earth is and I am. Onetime, I wondered what I am from a universal point of view, yet I came to the conclusion that that was a silly and an unproductive question, for it’s an unmistakable fact what we’re living in the earth now.
    On the other hand, I partially agree on what we don’t need to think over about our problem of life, for we are tiny life of the system.

  2. First, I realised that the earth is so tiny, and even though the sun is! I can't imagine how huge the universe is, nor can I know. For the universe, the earth is a little, tiny planet like a baby, yet it's actually big for me. I mean, if the earth disappear one day, what can it do? How can it affect the universe? Therefore, I have no power to effect the universe, yet I'm alive and have feelings and mind.
    I like that kind of stuff, but once I start thinking about them, I can't stop it. Probably I can't sleep properly today~

  3. There are many different planets in the universe such as the smallest planet ' Mercury ', ' Mars ' second smaller planet , ' Venus ' , and follow on is our planet , that is EARTH and it is the fourth smaller planet in the universe and many more. Besides that , I realised our planet is such a tiny planet and the size like a stone , on the other hand , we can think about how small are we in the universe and I think we are just like a sand in the beach.
    Moreover , at the end of the video , I'm thinking about if i have had an opportunity , I will migrant to another planets to live because that maybe is a good start my another live . haha

  4. I have studied planets of the solar system since I was studying at secondary school and I realised that the earth was so small,so it was interesting to understand when i watched this video.Once the video left our solar systemand that is insane,there could be living things bigger than earth.At the end of the movie this is a cool video! I never realize how small we are,but we are an average sized star.yes,its tiny...

  6. I watched a similar video last year. It made me think all day, and I realised my life was not important at all, in the universe. We are so tiny as are atoms for us. While the radius of the heart is only 12756000 metres, my cephei is 3481250000000 metres! So, even if the heart seems huge for us, scientists showed us there are stars much bigger. This can be incredible, but this is the truth, the heart is tiny, and we are even tinier!
