Cosmic Embers

How was our galaxy formed? Apart from few scientific theories, there are many myths. Why not write my own?

 

Once upon a time, there was a huge bush fire raging on a small planet. The fire burned so fierce that its embers and smoke were expelled from the atmosphere and flung into outer space. The embers kept burning for eons and gave birth to new suns and eventually a whole galaxy, in which the small planet was totally lost between billions of suns and huge dark clouds of cosmic smoke along the galactic plane…

 

Pure nonsense? Look at my image and tell me what you think!
