I felt like starting a thread about

THE UNIVERSE

I'm interested in hearing peoples theories about the universe. When I think about the universe, I think of inifnite in all directions. I point out that most people don't realize that if you go straight below earth, it goes infinitely in that direction too. Most people tend to think of our solar system as a two-dimensional plane. It only has length and width.

Also, if you were to draw a straight line from below our earth it doesn't necessairily have to hit the top of another planet.

Lastly, I can spend long periods of time (I don't have much of a life, so sue me) trying to imagine nothing. Just nothing. Try it. It's harder than it sounds.

Ahhh, nothingness. Here's a brain hurter. Try to imagine that there is absolutely no existence at all, not even vacuum, when the universe collapses. Not even blackness.

I've always tried to understand what it would like to be blind, as that is essentially the same. It's like the back of your head, you just aren't aware of anything. Not even blackness.

My theory on the universe is that we had at one time a 'Big-Bang' and the universe is slowly oscillating. When I try to think of infinity, I stop before my head hurts. It's just too much for our simple minds to encompass. So, what do you think?

The universe is a giant hypersphere. It's not infinite, but it's impossible to ever leave. If you where to travel in one direction out from earth, you would eventually come back to earth from the opposite direction. We can also only see 3 dimensions of our universe, therefore limiting our veiw from the true 11 dimensional reality.

Which is exactly what I said. But in less words.

Humanity's fate could literally be decided by the amount of dark matter in space. If there isn't enough, the universe might come closing back in on us in about...

Well, that's one interpretation of string theory. Bascially when you reach the edge you twist and turn through non euclidean geometry.

Yeah? I think better when after I get some sleep. Or when I'm not trying to think of nothing err...everything...the Universe!! Pick up a Physics textbook today!

I think that after a certain distance nothing is out there because it gets too dense and nothing can sustain the intense pressure.
