The universe is not empty. We are very aware that we are bound to the Earth. The Earth is bound to the Sun and the Sun to the Milky Way galaxy. The Milky Way is bound to the neighboring galaxy Andromeda, both residing in the Virgo supercluster of galaxies. And the Virgo supercluster senses all the other galaxies and all the accumulated energy in our observable universe. So we don’t live in a flat, empty spacetime.

Astronauts also don’t float in empty space. They can see the Earth spin and the Sun roll along. They are falling and weightless, but on a path we’ve been accustomed to calling an orbit, an orbit around the Earth in orbit around the Sun in a glacially long orbit around the galaxy. Their paths aren’t straight. Their paths are curved into a circle around the Earth sewn into the circle around the Sun sewn into the path around the galaxy, because free-fall paths are curved when the sky isn’t empty. Because space is curved by the presence of matter and energy.

Universe City

Hey! I recently made this for a school project a little while ago with the intention of drawing Universe City. This was my first Adobe Illustrator Project.

The little rocket on the moon is a reference to Space Boy by Stephen Cranie. (I think) Very good book and webtoon.
