Time doesn’t seem to move so quickly in space

“These trees and bushes and grasses around me are living organisms just like animals. And they have to face very much the same sort of problems as animals face throughout their lives if they're to survive. They have to fight one another, they have to compete for mates, they have to invade new territories. But the reason that we're seldom aware of these dramas is that plants of course live on a different timescale.” – Sir David Attenborough, naturalist

Those words, different timescales. That very much describes everything you see at night in the sky. 

We here on earth live our lives at an incredibly faster rate than planets, stars and galaxies evolve. It’s like the heavens are stuck on flypaper, never changing, but that’s not true.
