The universe is limitless, and as technology advances, our knowledge about it is expanding. And yet we know so far only a tiny fraction what remains to be learned and discovered. As Douglas Adams wrote in “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”: “Space is great. It's just huge. You don't even Believe how breathtakingly huge it is. You may think that it is far from your home to the pharmacy, but this is just nonsense in comparison with space."
