^Inarguable.

Imagine the Milky Way, something comprised of millions of stars, each so incredibly far apart that we may never reach them. That being said, what about the distance from one galaxy to another? What if all those galaxies are like the stars in our own galaxy, galaxies inside galaxies unto infinity?

Not meaning to cause debate, but I would like to mention that if the pregnant mother comes into contact with someone infected with German measles, or rubella, the infant can contract congenital rubella syndrome, sometimes causing severe autism.

   Well, actually, you could debate space being big, just not with an argument that made any sense from a human perspective.

   'Big' is a relative term. It means physically large in size, relative to your perspective. Ants see us as big, we see elephants as big, elephants see whales as big. We see space as big, but if you are measuring with 'bigger than space' as your standard for 'normal,' space is small.
