Taken last month at 5AM in Arches with Moab, Utah in the distance.

It's not everyday that a slight navigational error lands you, not only at the edge of the Milky way galaxy, but also with no way of getting back to civilization. So while my fellow explorers in the Distant worlds fleet worked tirelessly to mount a rescue effort, I had about 18 hours to kill, in one of the most mysterious places that our reality has to offer. The one place where the true scale of our universe is actually visible and where a human can experience the shear vastness of the space... not between stars... but between galaxies. So here is what happened. Hope you enjoy.
