Given that we did take the time to gaze at the stars and contemplate their order
(Figure 20),
we might have an experience like the LDS scripture The Pearl of Great Price records Abraham had (Abraham 3:6-9):
“And the Lord said unto me: Now Abraham, these two facts exist, behold thine eyes see it;
it is given unto thee to know the times of reckoning, and the set time, yea, the set time of the earth upon which thou standest, and the
set time of the greater light which is set to rule the day, and the set time of the lesser light which is set to rule the night. Now the
set time of the lesser light is a longer time as to its reckoning than the reckoning of the time of the earth upon which thou standest.
And where these two facts exist, there shall be another fact above them, that is, there shall be another planet whose reckoning of
time shall be longer still; And thus there shall be the reckoning of the time of one planet above another . . . ”
Figure 20. In this stunning vista recorded with the Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys, distant galaxies form a
dramatic backdrop for disrupted spiral galaxy Arp 188, the Tadpole Galaxy. The cosmic tadpole is a mere 420 million light-years distant toward the northern constellation Draco.
Its eye-catching tail is about 280 thousand light-years long and features massive, bright blue star clusters.2.37
