    Kinda weird to put the sun in the center imo. Cause we’re not the center of it all. But if you put the earth in the center and started spacing out from there it would be pretty cool IMHO

      Why is it weirder to put the sun at the center than to put the earth at the center?

        Well if Earth is at the center than this is everything we can see in the observable galaxy from our viewpoint. Having it this way seems like out solar system is the center of it all

          that was about the solar system though, not the observable universe
