Sure we knew it had rings, but who woulda thought it had THAT big of a ring?

*edit*
Also, I'm sure all of you know how big space is, but it's still so humbling to see everything put into scale: Planets, Stars, Nebulae, Galaxies - Universe Size Comparison 2009

Here is another way to put the enormous sizes in perspective. Please note, this is a .gif image. So, be patient. Its starts out with earth, and compares that to other planets. It compares those to stars, and stars to larger stars, etc.

No one should ever make fun of God's creation. Cause if you do, you are making fun of yourself.

...which I frequently do anyways. :P

Are you saying that no one can ever make fun of anything without making fun of himself? That's a little dramatic. I believe God gave us a sense of humor for a reason.

Even so, who made fun of God's creation? I assumed you were referring to me, but all I said was, "...but stupid!" and only in as little seriousness as possible.

Why "should" you make fun of anything anyway.
