We're investigating how craters were formed on the moon. |
Which objects will create the deepest craters? |
Does the mass of the object (the meteor) affect the size of the crater? I searched for information on the number of stars in the observable universe. I came up with various answers---numbers I can't even imagine. Numbers like a billion trillion. But maybe more. Scientists aren't sure. Information like this makes me realize my concept of God is way too small. God determines the number of the stars and knows each one by name. And better yet, he knows each one of us by name and loves each one of us individually. As the kids sing in chapel; Our God is a Great Big God! |
For it is good to sing praises to our God;
for it is pleasant, and a song of praise is fitting.
2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem;
he gathers the outcasts of Israel.
3 He heals the brokenhearted
and binds up their wounds.
4 He determines the number of the stars;
he gives to all of them their names.
5 Great is our Lord, and abundant in power;
his understanding is beyond measure. Psalm 147: 1-5 (ESV)
