ASTRONOMY CAN GIVE you a perspective on what it means to be here on Earth. It can help you locate yourself in space and time. Once your realize how vast our universe is, Earth seems quite small, and people on the other side of the world seem like neighbors. Furthermore, in the entire history of the universe the human story is only a flicker of an eye blink. This may seem humbling at first, but you can be proud of how much humans have understood in such a short time.
