scale of the universe

[brin]

Speaking of the size of the Universe - Has anyone ever contemplated where it ends...is there an end ? What is forever and if it goes on forever then there is no end so does that not fly in the face of " everything has a beginning an and end ? Just sayin ' LOL

OK - thanks Dan, now my head is not the only one that hurts...I agree with you and I try not to worry about it...:laughing:

If the Universe is expanding, what is it expanding into?

If the Universe is NOT expanding, does that mean the Universe is contained? If so, what contains the Universe?

These questions make my head hurt.

I am trying to post a website. Please bear with me.I think my PC is working correctly now. www.atlasoftheuniverse.com/bigbang.html

I think we oughta make a law to limit the expansion of the universe....or, at least cap it....until we find a way to tax the growth.

Yeah, but they are full of beans. OUR space may be all contained in OUR Universe but if OUR space is expanding it has to be expanding in SOMETHING.

To use their bread analogy, our space/universe is in the dough, but the dough IS expanding into SOMETHING.

If there are multiple universes what is containing the multiple universes?

What keeps our dough loaf of a universe meeting another dough loaf of another universe? Just big loaf pans? Or maybe when two universe loafs overflow their pan that is the Big Bang!:laughing:

I guess I will have to watch some more episodes of Big Bang Theory to find The Truth! :laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing: I am sure Sheldon knows!

The application of Unified and analytical Geometry and Physics will offer some insight in regards to your question. My Wife loves "THe Big Bang Theory", and loves the antics performed by the characters. I, myself, have never seen any mathematical or scientific theories proven on that "Comedy Show" that illustrate any significant displays regarding educational formats involving the advancement of Scientific or Mathematical hypotheses and theories. I haven't even heard it mentioned on that show that "the shortest distance between two points is a straight line". Even the average third grader is aware of this fact. If you find facts regarding the "Universe" complexing, here is a question that will certainly add to the confusion. If a Creator created the Universe, then where did the Creator come from? Who created the CREATOR? Food for thought? I didn't include any or :laughing: in my post, because I didn't deem them necessary as a requirement used for ridiculing.

Creekbend....Now after reading your posts here...my head really hurts....:laughing: ---Maybe it is because everything we relate to has a beginning and an end.:laughing:
