Isn't that an interesting parallel? I can imagine God reading
Definitely. Once I had a coworker, who said, after I had explained the concept to him: "What do you need a spacecraft for? There is Earth! Isn't Earth like a giant spacecraft?"
And he's right: Earth is like a spacecraft too. Or, if you expand on the concept of giant spacecraft, our solar system could entirely be contained in some kind of chamber inside a spacecraft, and what we see as stars, might be other chambers with other solar systems. That's the largest of spacecraft imaginable!
Universes could be like snowflakes falling on a winter day, and galaxies like little ice crystals
And then there might be God who sent us on a journey
