34 Fascinating Pics to Refresh Your Perspective

Our world is an amazing place. But with work, responsibilities and all of the other pressures that accompany modern life, it's easy to forget to stop and take stock of just how wonderfully preposterous our very existence is. Hyper-intelligent primates, armed with nuclear weapons, adrift through space aboard an organic spaceship that orbits a super-heated ball of gas at 67,000 miles per hour.

Within that soup of entropic strangeness, some remarkable sights are bound to be captured on camera -- especially since pretty much every member of the planet's most dominant species is armed with a mobile, high-resolution camera. As long as members of said species remember to get off TikTok every once in a while to look around, of course.
