We are absolutely nothing.

Our worth isn't size, it's complexity.

You can measure mathematical complexity by mapping degrees of freedom and relational structures within ordered systems. Upon doing so, the value of the complexity assigned to your mind reading this comment is quite literally many MANY times greater than the complexity of every single astronomical entity in our solar system combined.

Your idle thoughts are far more complex than all of the planets, asteroids, moons, satellites, machines, dust clouds, rings, torrents of solar winds and cosmic radiations, comets, and the Sun all combined.

The scale of the universe is impressive, but you are far more so.
