I used over 24 hours of exposure of the night sky to reveal hundreds of galaxies, zoom in to see them!

Images like this fascinate—and I don't know why—make me sad at the same time. Anyone else with me? You're just 'WOW' one moment and then just overwhelmed and sad both at the same time the next. Only the vastness of space makes me feel like this. It's odd.

EDIT: All your comments, you guys, make me feel even more, I don't know, I'd say smaller than I already am, but why do I feel even more alone?

Sorry for my dumb question . But can someone ELI5 how can a 24 hour exposure from a fixed point on earth result in such a photo. Won’t the earth’s rotation (and change in position) result in motion blur/shifted captured image ?

I wonder how many photos of our galaxy have been taken from the galaxies in this photo.
