That’s too many dots for interstellar travelers to avoid. Perhaps with self-steering spaceships that can avoid those dots, we can get where we would like to go.

Anywho, space is a very hostile environment. Almost as hostile as being a country adjacent to Russia.

The distance between each of those lights is probably 1000000+ light years.

As the points represent the supermassive singularity in the center of a galaxy, that is around 300,000 light years represented by each point.
