Distance - 4K

This planet has remained undiscovered and unknown to science for hundreds of millions of years.
Yet here it sits, just far enough from its star to sustain liquid water. What life is on this planet? What strange new creatures does it hold? Can it contact us?
It certainly does not matter to them, because they do not know we exist. It has never once crossed their minds that life could occur outside of their little island world. How could anything be as complex as they are? What use could knowledge of the beyond be to them while they scavenge for food? Surely, the greatest thing their universe will ever know will be themselves.
And so it is with the universe.
