Another Milky Way Sob Story

Another Milky Way Sob Story

The Milky Way is a Spiral and we’re stuck out there at the fringe…or somewhere out there. A sad dot of almost nothing…

The Milky Way arching at a high inclination across the night sky, (this composited panorama was taken at Paranal Observatory in northern Chile); the Magellanic Clouds can be seen on the left; the bright object near top center is Jupiter in the constellation Sagittarius, and the orange glow at the horizon on the right is Antofagasta city with a jet trail above it; galactic north is downward.

The size of the Milky Way

When you’re depressed you don’t want to read this shit.

The Milky Way Galaxy is one hundred thousand light years across.

That’s light years.

That means a light bulb you turn on will take one hundred thousand years to travel from one end of the Milky Way to the other end. Not the bulb. The light from the bulb. That means you are at one end of the Milky Way and this other dude is at the other end. He turns on his light bulb. You will need to sit there on your fat ass for one hundred thousand years, thinking dark nasty shit, before you see his light flash on.

Light year bullshit

Joe Blow the loser turns on his light. He’s sitting at the front window of his dump. City’s having a hell of a time evicting him. When he takes a dump in his front yard where kids can see him you call the cops but the cops, they don’t respond. You’re up on the hill in a real nice pad. You just checked it out of Zillow and you got three million in equity. You’re tight. But the old dude let his house fall apart and then he died and left it to this shithead relative or maybe he just showed up and found a squat. You’d feel so much better about your own property if this guy would simply vanish into a black hole. Well, wish in one hand….Anyway, this loser is at his window. Just sitting there in the dark with a bottle of vodka. But now he’s thinking. He needs to turn on his light and stare at his Vodka bottle. You just happen to be looking at his dark window when flash the window lights up.

There he is.

How long did it take for that light at his head to reach the light in your eye?

Long enough for you to pull the trigger on your high powered rifle?

Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. That is faster than a bullet fired from an assault rifle- 1000 metres per second.

I can understand how fast a bullet travels.

But the Light?

The Population Of The Milky Way

The Milky Way has an estimated population of 100–400 Billion Stars.

With at least that number of planets.

What does that even mean?

Four hundred billion planets with maybe a two hundred million packed with losers like the dude you just shot with your high powered rifle.

Billions and trillions and zillions of beings slogging around living on food stamps craping in your yard and the rain won’t stop.

And how long has this been going on?

They say the Milky Way Galaxy is 13 billion years old.

But where did it come from?

The Origin of the Milky Way Galaxy

Where did the Milky Way come from?

Image result for origin of the milky way

The evolution of the Milky Way began when clouds of gas and dust started collapsing, pushed together by gravity. First stars sprung up from the collapsed clouds, those that we see today in the globular clusters. The spherical halo emerged soon after, followed by the flat galactic disk. Sep 29, 2022

That means we are all just a lot of hot air, right?

Or it could’ve been this way

According to myth, the infant Heracles was brought to Hera by his half-sister Athena, who later played an important role as a goddess of protection. Hera nursed Heracles out of pity, but he suckled so strongly that he caused Hera pain, and she pushed him away. Her milk sprayed across the heavens and there formed the Milky Way. With divine milk, Heracles acquired supernatural powers.

The Origin of the Milky Way by Tintoretto (circa 1575–1580)

Which origin makes more sense?

Which origin makes you feel good?

I’d rather be the product of mother’s milk any day of the week.
