And in all of that... and perhaps more...
only one of each of us."

Re: A view of space
Both videos looked really cool. Thanks for sharing. Great conversations and contemplation starters.
Some interesting comments (thousands!) debating the validity of what is being represented.
Regardless, quite interesting to watch and consider!
In a slightly different vein, here's an old but interesting video I saw decades ago as a freshman in college. It was quite fascinating at the time, but this was created in 1977... long before computer graphics were commonplace let alone available to use in movies. This came out just before Star Wars was released... if I recall correctly.
