Consider these facts whenever you start to feel like you have anything figured out at all!
You can see less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum and hear less than 1% of the acoustic spectrum.
As you read this, you are traveling approximately 1,000 MPH as the Earth spins and our galaxy is traveling at about 1,300,000 MPH through the universe.
90% of the cells in your body carry their own microbial DNA and are not "you".
The atoms in your body are 99.9999999999999999% empty space and none of them are the ones you were born with, but they all originated in the belly of a star.
Human beings have 42 chromosomes, 2 less than a potato.
The existence of a rainbow depends on the conical photoreceptors in your eyes; to animals without cones, the rainbow does not exist. So you don't just see a rainbow, you create it. Pretty incredible considering all of the magnificent colors you see represent less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum.
