You can see any star from across the universe...
Their light often blends in with that of other stars. We don't know about their planets yet. We will have to go exploring to find that out.

The universe is obviously infinite.
The notion of across implies one boundary to another, which is nonesense since there can't be any boundaries. If you're looking at something billions of light years away, then it's almost guaranteed to be long gone by the time you see it ! |

I say the universe is a certain size and no bigger. If it all came from the Big Bang it has to be a certain size. What it is surrounded by is infinite. |

How do you know the universe is infinite? ... If it's not infinite, then it's got to have boundaries. OK, so suppose I go up to said boundary, and just point to the other side. What's on the other side is also part of the universe, because the universe is by definition everything. So boundaries can't exist. So the universe is infinite. |

Something had to be there before the Big Bang. It was a kind of non-existence. This non-existence is what still currently surrounds the very finite universe. There has to be something for the universe to expand into. The universe came from one central place. This is scientifically proven and measured. It only can have expanded so far since then. |

The universe always was, is now, and always will be.
It is infinite in all dimensions including time. It has no shape in the usual sense. Universe means everything, so there is nothing outside or seperate or before or after. |

Our understandings may differ, but we can relate to a concept of the
universe, as demonstrated right here. Infinite by a kind of extrapolated induction, but understandable in that sense. I'm comfortable with the infinite character of the universe, even if it is difficult or impossible to visualize. What I find much more difficult or unreasonable, is the Big Bang concept. It seems to be based on the assumption, that the current apparent increasing distances between galaxies, can be assume constant and extrapolated back 13.8 biillion years. Can anyone really believe for e.g. that all the galaxies just spranf from a single point ? ! |

What we observe as inflation/big bang is a phenomena we don't & maybe can't understand. Quite moronic to believe it all started from a pinprick. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com |
