Extraordinary Activity.
I think back to my school days, when on one day during a particularly boring afternoon, there had been a very hot few hours. Why doesn't something interesting happen? I thought to myself. At that time, I did not know that something incredible was actually occurring, extraordinary activity was taking place but the only thing was that I could not see it.
Did you know that it is estimated, each day two hundred and seventy five million stars are either being born or dying throughout the visible universe. Our own sun started life approximately four and a half billion years ago. In another four and a half billion years it is predicted that our Milky Way galaxy will collide with the Andromeda Galaxy, that could cause much variation to the gravitational structure of both galaxies. Just to add a little more detail, our solar system is also predicted that in approximately five billion years time from now the Sun will become a red giant and engulf near by planets.
Is this something to worry about? Definitely not, as all life goes through major periods of extinction. Homo sapiens are integrated into the process, the same as all life of evolving form, and like the saying goes it has happened in the past and can happen in the future.
I find science fiction very intriguing, as I love the extraordinary twists and turns that can come about from the motivating missions of discovery in books, to the fantasy and thrills of a challenge in space on screen. Sometimes though, while I appreciate science fiction, truth can be more fantastical than fiction and to give some scale to the future life possibilities of homo sapiens, their ancestors go back about one hundred and ninety five thousand years. Before that species are not classified as modern man. Dinosaurs without counting the ancestors of birds, lasted in total about one hundred and seventy seven million years.
There is often a lot going on, no matter how peaceful things may appear. Seemingly boring times, could be the opportunity to an awareness of what miracles and otherwise thought of as fanciful notions, are going on in life.
