The Cosmic Address

Before we learn about Cosmic Address, It’s important to know what cosmos is. Cosmos in easy word is everything that there is or there ever will be in existence. For instance let’s talk about postal address, the way we define our postal address is by layers / levels through which we could be located. House Number à Street Name/Number à Locality/Neighbourhood à City à State/Province à Country, and that’s where we end our postal address at country we don’t go writing our continent or Earth/Globe. But when we speak of cosmic address the scale turns to new heights where our house number becomes the planet Earth and the Earth/Globe becomes Cosmos.

♦ Earth (House Number) 

The Planet where we or anybody we've ever know live. Home to all our continents & countries, civilizations & governments.

♦ Solar System (Street Address) 

The system that house our planet surrounded by celestial bodies. The Sun is at its near centre and all planets revolve around it

♦ Milky Way Galaxy (Locality / Neighborhood)

The galaxy that house a group of such solar systems. With what is believed to be a dark matter at the centre of it which is responsible for gravitational activity to keep the systems bound in a motion.

♦ Local Group (City) 

The group of such galaxies is called “The local Group”. Imagine localities in a city it's just like that but on a much much higher scale.

♦ Virgo Super Cluster (State / Province) 

These local groups combine and form a Virgo Super Cluster. Every cluster has a lot of local groups which has many galaxies who have enormous amount of solar systems with uncountable Suns Planets and Stars.

♦ Observable Universe (Country) 

This is the last line know to us till now and so we call it observable universe. This is the collection of all super cluster that we currently know of.


♦ Cosmos 

We are yet to discover what in our term could be called continent and globe and who know there might even be a lot more layers. So, we call it all Cosmos and this is our Cosmic Address.
Comparing Microorganism to Human would be a rational comparison on relative scale to understand the comparison of Planet Earth to Cosmos.
