Although this has nothing to do with aviation, it's an extremely cool video (if you're a bit into Astronomoy)

The only thing I strongly disagree with is the very last statement in the video...  :D  ;D

That last star is freaking huge!

I think the sound track should have been "Galaxy Song" from Monthy Python http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buqtdpuZxvk.

It's those TSA Agents Stef.  They are on the look out for suspicious characters.

Yeah, that's why I wear an aluminum foil hat all the freaking time. Because of the freaking government, that's why.

But seriously, that's a very cool video. I often find myself wondering about the universe and stuff, specially the size of it all... I just can't quite wrap my mind around it, it's so mind boggling. Thanks for the link, Stef!
