A Change In Perspective.

Have you ever wondered how small we really are? Sometimes we can get lost in all of the details. However, if we just took a step back and looked at the world around us from a different point of view, it would help to put things into perspective.

Perspective is a very powerful thing, To choose a perspective is to choose a value system and, unavoidably, an associated belief system.

So as you watch this video as it takes you from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang; Think about a situation in your life right now, then think about it from a different perspective.

A change in perspective is a doorway to clarity.


Every star, planet, and quasar in the film is possible because of the world's most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History.

To give you a good visual of perspective, check out this picture below. It is the current installation in front of the Paris, Town Hall.

  1. Very cool. Really makes you appreciate that not only is our planet and solar system small, but we as human beings are smaller than specks of dust in the grand scheme of things.
