Within our lifetimes, we've marveled as biologists have managed to look at ever smaller and smaller things. And astronomers have looked further and further into the dark night sky, back in time and out in space. But maybe the most mysterious of all is neither the small nor the large: it's us, up close. Could we even recognize ourselves, and if we did, would we know ourselves? What would we say to ourselves? What would we learn from ourselves? What would we really like to see if we could stand outside ourselves and look at us?

Within our lifetimes we have marveled
00:00:03.294 --> 00:00:08.084
as biologists have managed to look at ever smaller and smaller things
00:00:08.174 --> 00:00:11.086
And astronomers have looked further and further
00:00:11.177 --> 00:00:14.965
into the dark night sky back in time and out in space
00:00:16.349 --> 00:00:18.556
But maybe the most mysterious of all
00:00:18.643 --> 00:00:21.055
is neither the small nor the large
00:00:21.145 --> 00:00:23.181
It's us up close
00:00:24.941 --> 00:00:27.148
Could we even recognize ourselves
00:00:27.235 --> 00:00:29.977
And if we did would we know ourselves
00:00:31.999 --> 00:00:32.903
What would we say to ourselves
00:00:32.991 --> 00:00:35.607
What would we learn from ourselves
