The bit at the end is immense.
"The universe is 14,000,000,000 years old. If something were more than 14,000,000,000 light years away it would take more than 14,000,000,00 years to reach us, which is more time than the universe has existed"
The powers of ten is also amazing

The Zulu tribe of Africa knew about the Sirius star in the first post. They called it the dog star and say it is where their ancient brother came from. Zulu means star people.
Both the pictures of the planets/stars and the scale atticus posted are amazing. I read about it from time to time but scale will always amaze me.
Plato, who was a secret follower of pythagoras hide a secret message using the greek musical scale of 12 in his writings. Every 12 paragraph Plato would refer to music and with this scholars will now be going through all his writings to find the hidden message which contains the secrets of the universe...apparently.
Also this ratio can be found in the smallest to the biggest things in the universe
There is much to know.
