Infinity
By Christopher Munroe
In a nearly infinite universe, there are billions upon
billions of stars, surrounded by potentially trillions of planets.
Perhaps some of those planets do contain life. In fact, the
law of averages implies that some must.
And yet, only one star in one small corner of the universe,
and one planet circling it, with seven billion people inhabiting it, produced
you.
Seven billion people on one of trillions of planets circling
billions of stars, and yet...
There’s only
One
You
Nonetheless, don’t let that trick you into thinking you
matter. Because in a nearly infinite universe, trust me, you don’t.
