It seems like once every month or so we see stories in the news about
telescopes making new discoveries with regards to reaching the far ends of
the universe. From what I've read (which isn't much), we can now see some
of the first galaxies and stars ever made. We can also pick up that
background radiation or whatever it is at the ends of the Universe.

Uhh...hum.

Could it be that the 'scopes are simply reaching a point where they can
see to such light-distances that it's effectively like going back in
time? Iirc, the 'scopes are now able to make out objects distant enough
to appear to have been just formed at "the beginning" or some sort of
immediately-after-the-Big-Bang period. Nothing in any of that suggests
(to me at least) an "end" to the Universe, like it's a big Truman Show
set or something.

Maybe I'm missing something...like religious training. Lucky me. (;^
