If The Moon Were Replaced With Some Of Our Planets

It's amazing to know that our capacity for imagination is as limitless as the universe or multiverse for that matter as some scientists contend; and in this video, the author of this short clip pondered on how our skies would look like if the moon was replaced by the planets in our solar system. The result was absolutely enchanting! Personally I loved the image of Saturn hanging up on an afternoon sky over a busy highway (it made the whole scene appear dramatic despite the bluntness of everyday events like traffic) even though realistically it would be the Earth circling around Saturn if that was the case. This longing is reminicent of our desire to mature as a species and to explore beyond common boundaries that is limited by our knowledge and technology, I mean, even NASA as it appears based on the number of articles and news published lately have a strong desire to visit other planets and not just those in the solar system, but Earth-like planets from several lightyears away!

It was even hyped recently that NASA has subcontracted the building of a star trek-like space ship that could travel faster than light or warp space and time in order to get to a destination that's so far away that any

conventional means of travel would take centuries to complete. The majority of the public though is skeptical as we are hundreds if not thousands of years away from creating such technologies and if true, then it would

lead us to assume the conspiracy theories about UFOs and their advanced technology to travel through space, which certain clandestine group in the government are keeping under wraps and I don't even want to go

there - at least not yet. What we should take away from this is the vision of one day we will be standing on another planet 20 - 60 lightyears away from our solar system, looking up at an alien sky with surreal images like this one; except by then it's not a computer generated image but a live feed from our peripheral vision to our synaptic brain.
