It's not that small no, it's roughly the size of a car, but compared to other things we build on earth it is pretty small.
Yea, it's a hell of a lot smaller than the rocket that put there.
Or even just compared to the fact that it’s basically alone on a planet way bigger than it.
idk, I still think it's a little sad https://xkcd.com/695/

I sometimes think about how fragile we humans are, but capable of doing absolutely amazing things like this. Then have constant reminders of how tragic it is that we waste the little time we have being self absorbed, hateful, and greedy… not to mention the whole killing each other thing.
Ah, well… at least we have weed.
