   actually, when you go outside and look up, out there in space,   
   stuff is anything but special. its all more of the same   
   everywhere: stars, planets, galaxies, voids, clusters, black   
   holes, neutron stars etc   
      
   but here on earth, we have something more unique than anything   
   out there.   
      
   compare diamond versus wood. in the grand scheme of things, wood   
   is 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000x more valuable than diamond,   
   which is far more common in this universe.   
      
   but the weird thing is, both are carbon based.
