What\'s at the end of the Universe?
« on: February 24, 2002, 04:57:16 PM »
Yes we have a new thread that will inspire people to actually think.
Here\'s the question, what do you think is at the end of the universe?  If it does end, what is past the end?  Or does it even end at all?  And if it doesn\'t end, how far could it go?

Unanswerable question.  My best guess would be that it just simply doesn\'t end though.

Space doesn\'t end, but the trail of matter does end. Ponder that! :)

Maybe 100 years from now, people will look back, and laugh at us for not realizing the universe is round :)

I would hazzard a guess that the universe is infinite, but that our recognizable universe, ie, with matter, would have to end eventually.  

Either that, or the universe has a finite edge, beyond which there would exist some sort of alternate or parallel universe (with infinite of these, too), each one based upon a completely new system of basic fundamentals.  Thought, energy, etc.

I think that at times..but sometimes one thinks it has to end somewhere along the line before ending back at planet earth. Who knows tho, only time will tell.

Maybe it\'s like MIB and we\'re inside a marble with aliens playing marbles with us.

I thought scientists figured out that it was actually growing very rapidly...

And I don\'t think it will be possible for us on this world to ever get to the edge, so we will never know what is beyond in this mortal life.  Does it just end? (Weird :)), or does it loop back to the other side? (Even weirder :)), or does it do something that we as humans can\'t even comprehend?

Another thought, do you think there are planets from another solar system with living beings just like us?

And the religion thread starts up again. ;)

I know the answer to that, but I don\'t think it would be wise to say anything right now.  I\'ve already got enough people hating me and/or my non widely accepted religious beliefs.
