I wonder why God did this when we're the only thing mentioned in the Bible.

The Bad Astronomer crunched the numbers a while back and came to the conclusion that there's around one rogue planet per cubic light year (I think...my memory might be a bit off).
That means that there's probably an extra-solar rogue planet closer to us than the nearest star!
Although still super far away. Super far, you guys.

Those rogue planets are such scoundrels. But... there's something about them...
