Great video!
The speed and intense magnitude of the sunrises shows how very close we are to our star relative to other stars.
Sun - 93,000,000 miles
Alpha Centauri (next closest star) - 26,190,000,000,000 miles
Abell 1835 IR1916 (farthest named star) - 79,200,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles
While the video is beautiful and the research is designed to explain the history of the universe and search for ET, our sun is finite. If we are going to survive as a species, we'd better start moving.
When government wastes money and people fight amongst themselves, this priority is neglected.
