It's Monday, and that's not good news for anyone. We wake up, crack our aching backs, and start yet another work week. We're important, and the show can't go on without us, or at least that's what we like to tell ourselves. The reality of the situation is a little bit different. Our daily grind is over little consequence in the cosmos, and an incredible photo captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope is a great reminder of just how tiny we — and our entire planet and even solar system — are in the grand scheme of things.

The image, which NASA showcases in a new blog post, focuses on a galaxy cluster called ACO S 295. It's a massive collection of individual galaxies in various shapes and sizes, ranging from gorgeous spirals to huge clouds of stars, planets, moons, and the like. It's an almost unfathomable number of worlds captured in a single image, and it's utterly impossible for any of us to know what lurks out there.
