COSMIC
Do not read the word as being "comic!" It is "cosmic."If you make this mistake, you might choose "amusing" or even "foolish." Now, the word "cosmic" comes from the Greek "kosmos," which means the world order. This includes all things—whether in space or on earth. This is particularly the case when we use the word in English. The "cosmos" comprises the whole universe. Generally, this comes to indicate space. Thus, something that is "cosmic" pertains to space but can also just mean, a_s large and vast as space_. Thus, the best answer here is "huge."
