I was curious how Earth stacked up in relative size to other heavenly bodies in the galaxy and universe. Found this very cool website: http://www.kiroastro.com/writings/perspective
I knew our planet was pretty dinky compared to the sun, but I had no idea how small our sun was compared to other stars. Wow. Freaking amazing.
And I like the fact that the website author mentioned that our sun is the ONLY star out of the billions upon billions in the universe known to support life.
