NCreviewer: As there's been no cache to find for a long time, I'm archiving it to keep it from showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Please note that if geocaches are archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ for lack of maintenance, they are not eligible for unarchival.

Geocache Description:


The UNIVERSE is very large and possibly infinite in volume. The region visible from Earth (the observable universe) is about 92 billion light years across. There are probably more than 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe. Typical galaxies range from dwarfs with as few as ten million stars in them to giants with one trillion stars in them.

EARTH - also known as the Earth, the World, the Blue Planet, Terra, etc. - is the third planet from the sun within the Milky Way Galaxy (which is one of the 100 billion galaxies in the observable galaxies!). Earth may be a big world to some but it is still the fifth largest planet of the known planets.

The SUN - a star and not a planet - is 100 times larger than Earth but just an average size for a star.

No matter how it is said --- a "drop in the bucket" (or a "drop in the ocean"), a "small fish in a big pond", or a "micro in a big lot" --- we are still small compared to what is out there.

BTW: Can you think of more "idioms" comparing small things to big things?

Enjoy - have fun - respect the area.
