Which has more to offer an explorer, inner space or outer space?

Does a nebula pose any greater mystery than a baryon? Is a pulsar any more difficult to recognize than a meson? Is the quantum universe really any less vast than the classic Newtonian universe? Do you suppose that once the yolk of a quark is exposed that we’ll be looking back at ourselves?
Can concepts of size be legitimately applied to any of this? Can these mysteries be solved without applying notions of consciousness, qualia and self? Will a spirit realm be uncovered in the process?
Where is the greatest adventure to be found, inner space or outer space?
Shake your magic eight-ball and tell us what it says.
