An funny little quote: "[...]international scientists found a comet-like ball of gas over a thousand million times the mass of the sun hurling through a distant galaxy cluster over 750 kilometres per second"

Talk about having gas man...

Hahaha, passing gas!

But just as mind blowing as the size of our planets and sun, is how far away from each other. I mean, think about how many earths you could fit between our earth and the sun.
