The history is physics is very clear about "common sense." Common sense
is a child's way of viewing the Universe.

You really have no idea that you are a netloon, do you?

Dear cestblu:

concerning the universe extension is it possible
to assume that the maximum distance between
two points in the Universe is 3.14*13.7billion
light years?


No.
http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/cosmology_faq.html#DN

Explanation:
in the earth the max distance between 2 points
(e.g. north pole and south pole) is one half the
ring, i.e. 3.14*r (r=earth ray). In the universe
speed material cannot exceed the light one,


No.
http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/co...y_faq.html#FTL
http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/cosmology_faq.html#MX

so the universe cannot have an extension
higher than it's age,


There appears to be no direct correlation between size and age.

always travelling to it's maximum speed... the
light one...


The local speed limit applies to kinetic motion. The Big Bang
was not an explosion, where stuff was blasted away from some
center. We can see in the direction we are moving away from, and
there is no glowing core of some sort of explosion.

What do you think about that?


You are at least thinking, and that is always good. You might

Every direction we look is the direction we are moving away from. And we
do, in fact, see the glowing core of the Big Bang- it's called the
cosmic microwave background.

Of course, you're perfectly correct in pointing out that the Big Bang
wasn't an explosion in any real sense. Thinking of it as an explosion
has to be understood as an analogy, and can't be taken literally.

More specifically, we have an anomalous motion wrt the Universe
at large, to the tune of 300 km/sec away from (towards?) Virgo.

And we do, in fact, see the glowing core of
the Big Bang- it's called the cosmic
microwave background.


This was a self-excited plasma state that quenched 300,000
*after* the Big Bang.

.... but because of the choice of words, guarantees that it will

All covered in the Cosmology pages I directed the OP to.

What's the red shift of the CMBR, Smiffy?

There is some interesting data in that respect, but I think this
interpretation remains far from conclusive. Fascinating possibilities,
though.

Which choice of words was in fact made by a leading opponent of the
theory, Fred Hoyle, with the intent to belittle or disparage it.
Ironically enough, the expression was apparently irresistible to
journalists and other populizers, to the extent that it stuck fast --
and now is mostly used without a trace of sarcasm.

Thanks. A Very good link for finding answers to common FAQ.
