    They sure are loving their new observation deck thing...

    I'ld say it'ld be something absolutely aweinspiringly magical witnessing the earth from up above. In all its beauty, it looks like a still blue and brown sphere. To imagine all the humanity with its great achievements and its wars and bloodshed, all taking place on a land which looks so serene from up far above. Completely unaware of the eternal chaos that goes down there.

    Wonder what an alien species might feel like when they stumble upon our planet. The glimmering blue marble in the midst of the cold darkness of space. A near perfect sphere suspended in the dark cosmos like a fragile ornament. Completely oblivious of the wondrous marvels and the tragic chaos that spreads upon its surface. At the core of every stillness lies a heart of chaos.
