Eh, I guess learning about the solar system was something that I was really bewondered by especially as a child. And the unique, iconic deep blue I've grown to know is just part of the fundamental things of how the world should be. It is cool that we continue to find new things but it's also a bit more bland and less special as a result. More of an emotional thought than a rational one.
