If you find the cosmos soothing, another topic I enjoy feeling small about is deep time. A natural history twist instead of a space one.
In college I made and gave public presentations on a scale model of the solar system. Many people were nervous or felt intimidated by the size of the space they saw, but a few people had their eyes opened to how comforting it is to be insignificant. You're in good company!
