It would be cool living in a world that is 10^22 power. It would have cooler nightime sky.

To our naked eye where we live is kinda plain, with just a bunch of white dots. But the view from 1million light years would be awesome.

I am sure there is a star with that approximate view. I wan't to live on a class M planet with that view.

Right, absolute zero = -273°C = 0°K.

Ep, instead of a Class M planet, I'd go for a Class X. Room Service is much better.

Makes you realize how insignificant we are. Just a speck. A veritable dust mite among the cosmos. A flea on the backside of the universe. A mold spore in a galaxy of lichens. A bit of pollen in the solar winds. A...a...a...ACHOOOO!!!
