If the universe is beyond human comprehension, why does life here on Earth look so normal?

It does not sit right with me that the universe is like this massive amalgamation of fire balls and orbs spinning around each other in the expanse of atmosphere and “solar wind” (?), yet our day to day life is uhhh pretty basic? In a billion years or so, our galaxy is going to get swallowed up by another galaxy. At least, this is what the scientists tell us. If this is a true thing that goes on in the universe, then why does life on Earth look so fucking normal? 

For instance, this is how the universe looks from Earth:

That’s actually kind of embarrassing for us!

The universe as a whole, no matter when it’s pictured, what angle, looks just fucking immaculate and surreal. But sometimes here on Earth colours clash or things look a bit off or people put up buildings that probably should’ve stayed in the drawing books. In Toronto, there are about six months where photographers kinda just go on break. 

This is how today looked for me:

Now this is what a “cosmic hot spot” looks like:

Extremely confusing. There are black holes up there, and down here there are libraries you can go to. If Earth is a part of the universe, but looks entirely different from it, then the only explanation I can possibly imagine is that Earth and us humans really are special. So there must be another reason. Also, no offense to God’s green Earth or anything, because Earth is genuinely gorgeous. Especially no offence to places like Hawaii or the Maldives. But there is a discrepancy here. Maybe, I am overthinking, but while I’m at it, why does anything look the way it does? Seriously. Like why do we have feet?? Anyway.
