It's sad that in our life times no one will ever even be close to getting as far as mars. :sigh:
Just beautiful. It makes me sad that I can barely travel and see all the beautiful things in the world. :smith:
Holy shit, this is awesome.
I have lived now. Ready the gun, I'm done.
So much space, need to see it all!

One day I will find Neverland :smith:

Holy hell I hadn't even noticed Andromeda there. It makes me wonder if it was a pure photographical take or a zoomed in one now though, since you can't see Andromeda like that I believe.

Oh and also he used GIMP to put all the pictures together....what the hell
Oh god its so awesome.
Also look at that space and tell me we're alone. seriously.
I HATE to be this person but don't you mean he traveled 6000 miles? The earth is only ~25,000 miles around at the equator (thickest point) and it seems redundant to travel almost 3 times around Earth to take these pictures.
Unless he didn't go in a straight line which it looks like he did.
EDIT: Forgot to mention how mind-blowingly awesome this is.

What about the members of that other miniscule percentage? Are they from Krikkit?
This is probably the most incredible photographical achievement in history... and I'm not even kidding.
Where can you even see this? Do people use special lenses to achieve such magnificent views or do I just need to go to the middle of nowhere and stare to see something like that?

Well yeah, they can't see out of their galaxy because of the dust cloud.
Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Is this not working at all for anyone else? I try and zoom in and it doesn't move for about five minutes; any way to speed it up?
