this looks like an eye with no pupil.

This completely fucks with my head. Is that really what a perspective look on one of those things is like? I had no idea! I thought they were a little bit more rounded and puffy like clouds but here it appears to have tendrils of some sort. Weird. I want more of this.

how about some love for cassini

duuuuude this thread is trippeddddddddd

GODDAMN.

thread needs to be viewed while this is playing

A Boltzmann brain is a hypothesized self-aware entity which arises due to random fluctuations out of a state of chaos. The idea is named for the physicist Ludwig Boltzmann (1844–1906), who advanced an idea that the known universe arose as a random fluctuation, similar to a process through which Boltzmann brains might arise.

10^10^50 years from now—estimated time for a Boltzmann brain to appear in the vacuum via a spontaneous entropy decrease.

10^(10^50) or (10^10)^50 ?

I'd hate to have to be stoned to appreciate this.

quit bickering everybody, this thread is about SPACE.

is there an enormous mass of dark matter bending light around it and creating the lensing effect seen here? think about it, and relax.

It's 10^(10^50)
