Joe Average never realizes just how massive space is.
A quick, simple, and easy test to find out if someone fundamentally knows how infinite space is and how infinitesimal they are to it.
Suggest we shoot our garbage in to the sun. If they balk at the idea, they don’t have a clue.

We have a perception of the asteroid belt as this place where there are massive ricks tumbling though space as far as the eye can see. The reality is that the average distance between asteroids is more than a million miles and it would be a fairly rare event to see another asteroid if you were on the surface of one.

At least one other scale model exists, because I visited it as a child.

I have a road map of the United States that's actual size.
Last summer I folded it.

They could actually be fairly close and you still might not see one because it’s absorbing more of the sun rays than reflecting it.
How often have asteroids passed by earth and we only knew about it afterwards?
