New Horizons is an interplanetary space probe meant to understand the formation of the Plutonian system, the Kuiper belt, and the transformation of the early Solar System.
The American space agency's New Horizons probe remains on course for its daring flyby of Ultima Thule.

In 2018, we have 7.5 billion humans on a very small strip of land, and we gain a person roughly every 14 seconds (people are living longer now). There's nothing empty about Earth - we are slowly destroying the atmosphere, oceans, land, forests, and eventually each other.
My point is - I don't believe Empty as a concept is bad. And the concept of Full isn't always good. No one can understand reality without holding opposing ideas in their head at the same time.
My question is - isn't everything that much more magical if we ARE the only organic life?
