Amazing astrophotography by Phil Hart

Do you ever stand alone out in the darkness? Have you ever felt the rest of the world drain away—all your worries and commitments and fears—and then suddenly it’s just you and the stars, face to face in the culmination of this cosmic accident of existence? And as you drink in the vast darkness and the light of far-off suns, as you realise that you are the eyes of the universe wondering at itself, you’re filled with this dizzying, soul-gripping sense of awe, because—holy shit, space.
