If only it didn't take 25,000 years -traveling at the speed of light, which we can't do anything close to- to get half way across our own galaxy, some of this news would seem more uplifting. But it is cool nonetheless. I think our knowledge of the cosmos and how it is structured is still in its infant stages, sort of like science at the point where the molecule was discovered but we didn't know what those were made of, etc etc.
...into the light of a dark black night.
