Default Are we alone in the universe?

So, humans are the only form of "higher life" in the tiny universe?


The smaller planets (inc earth)..



Compared to the larger planets.



Nowt amazing, we all know how tiny our planet is. Especially compared to our sun.



But how big is our sun compared to the other suns in our milky way?

Not very........







But then wait, if Jupiter is only 1 pixel large, yet dwarfs our planet, surly nothing can get bigger?





Wrong...





The largest star from the above picture is the 4th smallest star in the next image......













We are nothing, we are tiny. Will the human race survive long enough to get to any of these? Will the technology ever exist? Who knows, not in our lifetimes. Makes you think though..
