POPSGiant Cloud Of Marijuana Smoke Discovered In Space Other astronomers with a religious outlook, see something else. They believe God exhaled the smoke after creating the Universe. When God rested on the seventh day, He probably lit up a trillion joints. This theory would answer many theological issues. Further analysis of the marijuana cloud indicates the cloud is rotating. Astronomers now think the cloud will collapse on itself and form stars and planets in the distant future. One day, an extra-terrestrial species of beings made from marijuana smoke could evolve to answer all the questions of the Universe.

POPSAmazing.......Still think we are alone ? Take every grain of sand from every beach and ocean and shore on the earth. Try to imagine each grain a planet in the vastness of space. To just imagine 1 grain from a hand full even baffles the mind much less infinite number of grains. Now take time.....13.5 billion years approximately. Just try imagining that in head makes me dizzy. .. My point.........to think that out of all those grains of sand and that amount of time that 1 single grain (our earth) is the only one that harbors intelligent life is not only ridiculous but as insane. I am sure they are out there same as we are. Staring up at the stars wondering the same thing. Perhaps someday if we live that long we will meet.
