Astrophysicist Dr. Neil DeGrasse Tyson shares what he finds to be the most astounding fact about the universe.
"...when I look up at the night sky and I know that, yes, we are part of this universe, we are in this universe; but, perhaps, more important than both of those facts is that the universe is in us. When I reflect on that fact, I look up - many people feel small because they're small and the universe is big - but I feel big because my atoms came from those stars..."
Perhaps a haiku is fitting:
Admiring stars
Naive selfless entities
Their death creates me.
