What does the word SPACE mean to you? 

It is such a common and comfortably used word, ‘SPACE.’ 

Yet, is the SPACE between physical objects and our bodies the same as the SPACE between the molecules moving around inside these objects?  Or, is the distance that extends to the ends of the universe equally vast in the microscopic realm?

And, what about the non-physical, the spirit?  Is there a reality where our souls soar in unknown directions?

Combine these 3 (outer, inner, and non-physical) and you have the essence of “Space Travel”.
