I’m going to ask you to hold on to your brain for this one. We are about to attempt to grasp something that will really make your brain hurt and possibly ooze out of your skull. We as humans have a tendency to think in finite numbers, dimensions, and distances. Everything we know is measured to more or less a precise amount. The room you are sitting in is measured to an exact amount. The computer screen you are using is a precise dimension. Now let’s step out a bit. Let’s look at the big picture. Our planet exists in a solar system that really has yet to have defined boundaries. It floats, and I use that term loosely, through space in the Milky Way Galaxy. This in turn is floating in the Universe. This is what we want to look at. Science says the Universe, as we know it came about from an explosion that originated from a physically tiny mass. All the energy and mater that exists today came from this. Then it expanded to what we now call the Universe. Here is the question – If the Universe is infinite and is expanding in all directions, what existed before the Big Bang? What is the Universe expanding in to? If the Universe is expanding through this space what does this space exist in? If the Universe is infinite and expanding infinitely in all directions it has to be expanding into something that is to going on infinitely. Is there an edge to it? What is this infinite space the Universe is expanding in to, expanding in to? Maybe there is an edge to the expansion. They say the Universe is expanding, which by default says it has an edge. They say our solar system is creating a bow shockwave as it cruises through the galaxy. The galaxy is creating a bow shockwave as it cruises through Universe. Would it be fair to say the Universe is creating a bow shockwave as it travels through, umm, space? Is it safe to say that the space that existed before the Big Bang goes on infinitely and has existed long before the Universe and therefore is it safe to say that it is much larger than the Universe? SO couldn’t it be possible that there is another universe floating in this space that we are unaware of? Is there another universe cruising space with our universe that will some day collide with it and begin to merge with it as one rips the other apart like we have seen with other galaxies? The point being of this is that something existed before the Universe. The “space” the Universe exists in has to exist in something, that has to exist in something that has to exist in something and so on. If the Universe, as science says, existed as a tiny mass and exploded on to the scene then there is an edge and the paradigm that the Universe is infinite is false. It would be slightly more accurate to say the space that the Universe exists in is infinite but even then that space had to exist and get it’s beginning somewhere and so it existed in something that had been around a lot longer than the space. So again the question to ponder – What is the “space” the Universe exists in and how big is it? Jack R. Mason - Armchair philosopher, scientist and an Author. Source: www.articlesbase.com
