experience first hand that more succinctly displays how small you are and the scale of it all.

Though I suppose you could just look up at the sun (with protection of course) and tell yourself how large that thing is and how small it looks to you...

I feel I have a pretty good grasp on exactly how small the human race is in comparison to the universe and I love learning about the cosmos... but this still felt different.
